I recently completed a diploma in business and a diploma in management & leadership. I felt my assessor Marissa Litonjua was amazing and help me in every aspect throughout my journey. It was well structured and I was able to complete the course at a pace that worked well with my busy lifestyle.

I haven’t been doing my course for long. It’s been challenging but I find it frustrating when getting a response. I don’t get a lot of time as I am working full time and I only get limited time to work on my assessments, so if I’m having issues I am waiting one to two days for a reply. I have had issues with getting answers to my questions a lot of the time I get the same question repeated to me with no answer to what I was actually asking. I can ask the same question in a different way in case it’s my wording but still getting the question repeated to me without an answer.

The college for Adults Learning has really helped me with my full time schedule with work and being a new mum, I love the fact that it's self-dependent learning and is flexible. I would highly recommend it for those who want to challenge themself while juggling everyday work/life balance. It's great and the coach support are all so lovely too.

I just completed a double diploma of business & leadership and management with CAL. Marrissa, Kerri and all of the team were so helpful throughout the entire course. If your looking to complete a diploma which works around your own schedule/lifestyle, whilst still having first class support and coaching then College for Adult Learning is the perfect choice. Thank you again CAL.

The learning management system spark is really good. Easy to navigate! One of the best I've used in my long academic career. Well done CAL!The coaches are all lovely.I did a double diploma in practice management and business administration with CAL. I thought the assessments were overloaded with so much stuff that I know the assessors didn't even get a chance to thoroughly read everything. I think CAL can assess the same content with briefer tasks.There are lots of irrelevant activities that I had to complete as part of the journal. I do not see the point of overloading students with a bunch of activities to 'bulk up' the course. It does not add value and it's so time consuming. Personally, I found it so demoralising to get 1 question off the 90% mark required to skip the journal and then have to submit a good 20-30 pages of random activities that no one reads.For example with the manage health billing unit, there is no single tutorial video recorded for the topic of managing health billing they just took tutorials from other units. ( I know because I did some of the tutorials in my other units). My problem is that there's a whole bunch of irrelevant tutorials that you have to go through only to discover that assessments only focus on one learning document within a single tutorial. So why waste our time on the other stuff? Make it relevant or cut it out.Marking criteria and strictness across coaches (asessers) is widely varied. Some coaches e.g Robyn and Marissa are really relaxed, they are willing to accept reasonable answers, others are very strict eg Meagan Rawlings is very stringent with her marking criteria.. ie you can write someting which is true but she won't accept it because it's not on her answer sheet.When the questions have been worded very vaguely and open ended, and also the unit tutorials are mostly irrelevant, it can be very frustrating to be told to resubmit assignments over and over again for tiny details that don't add much value to your overall understanding of the key concepts.Studying with CAL is a great way to test your patience and ability to sift through a whole lot of rubbish to find the good bits. It's not all bad...

First the bad: I found the language used in the tasks/assessments to be a little vague and confusing. On talking with my coach, things were cleared up, but it's that initial confusion that was slightly disheartening.It was usually a 48hr wait to speak to a coach.Now the good: My coach Marissa was great at helping me work through the issues and keeping me motivated to get through the assessments, especially during the simulations. She gives clear and concise feedback.That you can do this in your own time, is really great and if you're running behind, as I did, they're open to a discussion on extensions or what can be done to help you get through the course.There is now a new format and it's much easier to use, clearer on segments and progress.Warning: the quiz's use a lockout software that are not always compatible with a work laptop (as I was using), so keep that in mind :)

CAL has been a great institution to study with while working full-time as it is self-paced. The support from the coaches has been fantastic, and the ability to use real-work situations and RPL towards assessments cuts the workload down dramatically. The main downside to their programs is the overload of required work. Learning journals, quizzes and assessment tasks with 25+ pages of instructions are not uncommon. A special thanks to Marissa for being a wonderful coach who has kept me on track to the end! The rest of the admin staff have also been excellent - always following up issues and providing a great experience. Thanks CAL team!

These people are absolute angels. Helping you through in every way. I joined a course last year in lockdown and couldn't pay for it because of Covid - they helped me a lot and then I decided to change courses, even that was a piece of cake. highly recommend.

The worst decision I ever made.Paid to teach myself.Enjoyed the course when Mike was my supervisor as he always explained and contextualised things making the unit relatable.I have a new supervisor Darren and the course became a nightmare. No support but very high expectations and very quick to say not good enough without providing any support.

I started my career on the tools and later transitioned into an office position. It took me a while to understand, but working in an office position is a skill that can be learned and honed. Thanks to the College for Adult Learning I now feel well equipped working in all aspects of my roll as a Technical Manager. A big thank you to Marissa from the College for Adult Learning for taking this extra bit of time to guide me through the course and making my learning experience pleasant.

I have just completed a double diploma with CAL. Comprehensive course materials and easy to use platform. However requirements to complete units were very time consuming. A big workload including lengthy, involved assessments with many role plays and presentations as well as a lot of written documentation. In addition to assessments, compulsory quizzes and many activities that had to be completed and submitted. I found both the coaches and administrative staff very responsive and professional in dealing with issues when raised. Studying with CAL would suit students who are self-motivated and self-directed with a lot of time to commit to their studies. I would definitely recommend CAL to people who really want to learn :)

(*Edited) - I initially gave a one star rating with the feedback below. However I have now changed this to a 4 star rating due to receiving a telephone call from Michael (manager of the Success Team at CAL). He reached out to me and listened and discussed my situation. He had done his homework in looking up my requests as well which impressed me. He was patient, professional and personable. Long story short he granted me my extension which was a huge weight off my shoulders. Thank you Michael (you deserve your role/title and some).(Initial review) - Really poor course format and poor coaching support. They are really quick to sign you up and take your money. When you need support, it is not immediate - you have to book an appointment which could be a week later. If you don't do your course within 24 months you have to pay extra to extend it and you can't apply for an extension until 6 months prior to the end of your course.The course format was changed halfway through the course due to not meeting national standards. There was no flexibility with extending my course because of this fact.

I have just completed my double diploma in Business and Leadership Management. There have been positives and negatives to this course. The positives are fantastic support from Marissa and Di in the student support department:) Negatives were that i was sold this course on the fact I am originally a tradesman wanting to transition into a business role (off the tools). All through the course there are sections where it asked for the student to do research or find out answers by contacting certain colleagues in there office or department?! This isn't possible if you do not work in a corporate environment. I also found that quite often certain software may be required to draw up graphs for example so time is wasted trailing the internet for free copies when this should be provided as part of the course. A lot of patience and perseverance was required and is required for an online course of this nature.

I have just completed my double diploma in Business and Leadership Management. I started my studies in our first lockdown but soon went back to working full time. Marissa was such a star. I received nothing but support and positivity from her. The study style really worked well for me. After hour calls meaning I could study and still get support after 5pm or on weekend. I can't wait to put my new knowledge to the test. Thank you!

I am not happy with the structure and the content of the study. Very lengthy assessments and learning journals. Very poor support from the coach. Length time to get the support from coach is very long. Once assessment submitted you get feedback from the coach which does not make sense. I would never recommend this college to anyone. Looking forward to get the full refund of my fees as I am not happy.Basically I have to do all my research for everything and no support from coach. More off you get a feedback from the coach about plagiarism

I would not be here today, without the flexibility of C.A.L. online learning and support from the coaches (especially Marissa). I was provided with support and motivation along the way in completing my double diploma in Human Resources, and Leadership and Management. If you're anything like me and time poor due to already working full-time and other commitments, I strongly recommend you to complete your course online with C.A.L.

I just completed my Double Diploma in Business & Leadership Management. I don't think I would have done it without the amazing help and guidance from my assessor Marissa. Marissa was supportive, calm and very efficient. Amidst her own studies, she was always available for her CAL students. So thank you Marissa!

Very happy and excited to finish my Double diploma today with CAL. At a point i almost gave up on finishing my course due to family and work as I was feeling too stressed out and could not spare enough time out of my busy schedule to do course work. Fortunately I had a chat with my coach Marissa Litonjua who encouraged and motivated me to continue with studies and assured all her support. Ever since I had lot of simulations, role plays and coaching calls with her with a huge support every time. I must say that her knowledge of her subject is impressive which helped me clarify my doubts every time. Thanks Marissa and CAL for all the support ..Keep the good work up..Salim

I recently completed the Double Diploma in Business and Business Administration. I have gained much confidence and knowledge for my job through this course. I started the Diploma not realising how much work would be involved, but pushed through to finally finish in the new year. Not only have I gained up-to-date knowledge for my job, I have learnt more about learning, it has helped me learn how I learn, and retain information. I find I'm much more focused in other things since completing. I like the consistency of each unit - tutorials, videos with transcripts and copies of the PowerPoints all downloadable, assessment quiz and assessment tasks. The activities in the tutorials are thorough and often took a while to complete, which looking back, is a good thing, as I didn't want to skim over the info. I received encouraging feedback from my assessors Meghan and Marissa, not a tick and flick! I particularly like the booking system for the role plays - very efficient, and I didn't have long to wait for appointments. Marissa marked my assessments promptly, which really helped me keep the momentum going. Thank you CAL!

Having recently completing my double diploma in Human Resources Management and Leadership Management I would recommend CAL for anyone who wants to learn at their own pace. The support received from my coach Marissa Litonjua was exceptional. Her kind words, sound advice and knowledge helped me finish even when I didn't think I could. Thanks Marissa for helping me complete this course and for your fantastic support.

My experience with CAL has been a bit of a whirlwind to be honest. They have made multiple changes to my course throughout the time that I have been completing it, which has made it quite difficult to complete. I have been through some quite challenging experiences outside of my course, for which the company have been quite supportive. That said, the new system that they have in place is FAR better than the old one. I want to do a special shout-out to Marissa Litonjua and Kerre Burley - definitely would not have completed my double diploma without their support.

My experience with the College for Adult Learning has been extremely positive. I was able to attain my double diploma whilst working full time with the help of my coaches. The study tips they provided kept me on track and the assistance I received specific to my course allowed me to continue and achieve my goal. I feel the knowledge and skills I have received are relevant to the current industry and I can take what I have learnt and apply it to my work. Thank you CAL!

I wanted to study Human Resources, and after much research went through CAL for a Double Diploma. The set up was easy, I could navigate the site very well. I received support every step of the way which helped me get through each unit (and some are pretty big!) I was granted extensions along the way as life intervened, and the communication was fantastic. The zoom calls were convenient and comfortable to do. I would like to thank CAL, and Marissa who helped me achieve my Double Diploma!!!

I have recently completed a double diploma HR & Leadership Management through CAL. This course has now been superseded, which is good, as some of the material was a little out of date (what with legislation continuously being updated). The units are broken down well into various relevant topics, and although some were repetitive, you can re-use past work for duplicate questions and further build that knowledge base. Some tutorial questions did have a couple of errors in there, that once reported to the help centre, do get resolved - but again, superseded course, so likely those issues have been addressed in the new course. These units and assignments go IN DEPTH! It really can turn into a giant wormhole of work if you don't carefully structure your time. Resources provided in this course are plentiful and the coaches are very informed and want to see you succeed. In particular, Marissa was a real champion for me during the last 13-ish months. Her advice and wealth of knowledge was unmatched, and she was always very caring and supportive throughout the journey. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Thanks to the whole CAL team and thank you Marissa for everything.

I have signed up last year Feb and very happy with the outcome. Being hard of hearing and getting fabulous support from one coach Marisa. She's an amazing coach and understood my situation. I am grateful for the company's communication and helping out whenever I am stuck especially when struggling to upload documents.I will be returning to do another course once I have completed Leadership and Management.I recommended College for Adult Learning if you want to study from home in your own pace and environment. This is the place to be :-)

Hi,I was introduced to them through training.com.au. When I spoke to the representative and explained my qualifications, skill sets & career goals- the representative was honest enough to admit that they dont have course to suit my needs. They also directed me towards the right course and where i could seek subsidy. Thats what a good ethical person/ organization would do!!!! Thank you for the guidance!!!

Studying online through CAL has been a really positive experience. The Coaches are incredibly supportive and understanding and are ready to work with you to get the best results! I have enjoyed connecting with the Coaches and wouldn’t hesitate to do it all again. Thankyou to the coaches for their endless time and guidance.

I completed my Diploma of Project Management through CAL in 2018 (~12 months of part-time study), and successfully was employed in various Defence Industry IPTs upon achievement. In April 2021, I took an Asst. Project Manager position at a well-known Defence organisation and within 3 months I had successfully worked away the ‘Assistant’ title, accepted a promotion to Technical Project Manager and am now successfully managing over 10 Defence contracts/projects with values ranging from $35,000 to $1.4m.The Diploma itself was of course challenging, as all qualifications at this level should be. Individuals should perhaps be aware of their own shortcomings and/or ineptitudes prior to hastily venting on review websites. The CAL staff were prompt, polite, motivating, and supportive throughout my 12 months of study, and I never felt the tasks ahead of me were insurmountable. I found the lectures, activities, assignments, and general content engaging and relevant, and I know that completing the Diploma was crucial to the upwards career trajectory I briefly mentioned in the opening paragraph.My CAL experience didn’t end with the completion of my Diploma however. The aftercare service I received was exceptional, and I have been in regular contact with various members of the team post-2018 that have warmly checked in and congratulated me on achieving my study and career outcomes. I participated in the ‘Career Close-up Profile’ activity in 2019, a personalised question and answer session that CAL polished up and displayed proudly on their social media accounts.In 2020, I was doubly humbled to be considered a CAL ‘success story’ due to a combination of my ‘fantastic learning efforts not going unnoticed’ (kind words, thanks Aria), and a new role I recently started that was directly aligned with both my study and career goals. I gratefully participated in this activity also, resulting in CAL funding and organising a professional videographer to come to my apartment in Brisbane and film a short interview for the ‘Real Outcomes’ video series.More recently, I received very supportive correspondence from the CAL team last week, prompting and facilitating the seamless transition/upgrade to the latest revision of the Diploma of Project Management, something I would not have been aware of had I not been informed!In summary, my studies with CAL have been intrinsically linked with the successes I have achieved to date in my career thus far. The pricing is more than competitive, and I probably have had correspondence with up to ten different members of the team throughout the years, and I couldn’t say a bad word about any of them! The learning experiences, customer service and aftercare was above and beyond what I could have ever anticipated from online learning, and I would highly recommend this RTO to anyone interested in professional development.A few names come to mind over the last few years, so a special thank you to Michael Meere (my assessor), Alysia, Aria, and most recently, Sarah. Way more than just an RTO!Myles Hembrow – MAIPM CPPM

Finally finished by double diploma in Business and Leadership Management, being an essential worker, working full time and being pregnant for last 6 months of it was challenging!! I want to thank the assessor Marissa Litonjua for being so great in helping me this last year and to get the course finished before my baby comes! I also want to thank Kerre Burley for always being so lovely and helpful in my assessment stimulations.My only criticism would be of the Payroll unit, It was the only unit I really struggled with and I know a lot of other students did too. The assessments were not explained clearly and I ended up having to resubmit about 4 times (This did not happen with any other unit). The teacher Megan was the only one grading the assessments and I'm sorry to say but she really was no help at all. The feedback was not helpful and I ended up getting assistance from another student to help me through the unit.Overall the course was very good, I did not upgrade to the new BSB package as I was so close to finishing the older version of the course so I'm not sure what the upgrade will be like.Thanks again CAL team!

The best time to invest in Forex & Cryptocurrency is now and the right person for the job is Mrs. Charlotte Campbell, she is an expert skilled traderforget about the negative reviews you may have seen so far, scammers has made it seem like there are no genuine traders again. “Don’t wish it were easier. Wish you were better.” I can assure you beyond doubts that Mrs. Charlotte Campbell is 100% reliable I've made my 4th trading withdrawal with her.

Was given the wrong information on a course by their staff member too interested in getting my signature and charged over $4400 then refused a refund after they did not offer the course I enquired about after being led astray. Taking to ombudsman as the finance guy is a rude prick. Beware they’re scammers..

The material is ridiculously complicated for what it is. The hours required to complete it are way beyond what was initially stated. Help isn’t available out of hours, advice given varies & contradicts depending which coach responds. The lectures are a mish mash of old notes & poorly updated information, terminology varies throughout & the assessments often don’t even line up with the unit. There’s no follow up. Do not use CAL.

I am not understanding how there is so many positive reviews this is a horrible course. The course material is full of errors the coaches are so unhelpful and offer no real useful advice. It can take 2 weeks just to get a coaching call booked it. I pulled out of the course and signed with tafe which is so much better.

I have just completed the Double Diploma of Business and Leadership Management. The course was closely aligned with the skills I was developing in my role at my workplace. I was priviledged to have such an excellent, professional, supportive tutor in Marissa Litonjua. She was always encouraging, very helpful, approachable and accommodating. I will miss the weather updates from sunny Queensland. Thanks for being a vital part of my career aspirations. Jen

I have just completed my double diploma in HR Management and Business Admin. This has been one of the best online platforms that I have used for my learning experiences. The content Is excellent and very thorough, there are various methods you can use, depending on your learning style. There is a lot of work, but is totally rewarding as you work through it. My biggest take home is if you have any issues or get stuck is to always communicate with the lecturers or even the office staff, the whole team is super supportive. I struggled a couple of times with work time pressures where it got too much, the CAL team where very supportive and assisted me through it. Kerry and Marissa where both great facilitators when working though my major assignments, and thanks them both for making it an easy process. At the end of the day CAL want you to pass and will work with you through the process. Thanks to the CAL team!!! 😎😎

I have just completed my double diploma in project management and leadership management. It has a lot of information and I learned so much. The price you pay in money and mentality was worth having these two diplomas now and I can’t thank CAL enough. I have always had good experiences with the coach’s, timing and content. I would recommend studying with CAL to anyone. Just chip away at it and keep motivated.

I signed up with CAL to study the Double Diploma of Business Administration and HR. They advertised, “you will work directly with your own individual learning coach“ and receive “Expert and up-to-date content”. Unfortunately, I experienced multiple documents that were out-of-date including unit assessments. When I brought this to their attention, they were unapologetic regarding my time spent following this up, after I had already completing assignments to the best of my ability using content they provided. The student portal had a notice that updates were taking place, however it was not clear as to which documents were being updated. The coaches are friendly, however, I had three different coaches telling me three different requirements for a unit assessment. CAL did not facilitate an online learning environment that they advertised in this regard. I had all intentions on completing my study with CAL and had no issues with the workload itself. I do not recommend CAL and would suggest if you do sign up and have any regrets, to utilise the 30 day money back guarantee straight away. I have since withdrawn from the courses because of the ongoing issues with course content being out of date and an inconsistent coaching approach. After expressing my concerns to the institution and application to withdraw, it took several negotiations with senior management to reach an agreement of a partial refund. I will continue to actively pursue study with a more reputable institution.

Terrible experience. Scam after 30 days you don’t get your money back. Site incredibly difficult to navigate. Case studies in other sections outside of assessments with no clear direction on how to find. Limited support. Coach calls back 1-2 days after booking. Do not waste your money and if you do you can’t say you were not warned. The idea seems good but their coaches aren’t in house so you can’t chat to them for a quick simple question to help progress.

I found my whole experience with CAL to be a positive one. It's been many years since I have been in a "school" environment, so it took some discipline to get through this course. I set myself a 2 hour minimum study period each day which took a fair bit of effort and focus, as I work full-time plus have a family to look after. It was hard initially, but after a couple of weeks, I found my rhythm and it was smooth sailing after that. I also didn't put any pressure on myself-if I had a bad day at work-I didn't touch any study as I found no joy when I hit the books in that frame of mind, and that made it hard work. So, I found giving study a miss for one or two days actually beneficial, and when I did go back, I was more involved and interested in my course than before. I have nothing but praise for the support I received from the whole team at CAL - from the admin staff to the tutors. They responded quickly and the coaching calls helped me to get to the next questions/units quickly. A big thank you to each of you for the part you played in helping me achieve a long-held goal. I highly recommend CAL to anybody who is looking to take on some study. The content is laid out well and easily followed. The exercises for each topic and the assessments went a long way in ensuring that the information absorbed was drilled home.

CAL provided a great opportunity to learn at your own pace. I would highly recommend their Diploma of Project Management if you are new to the field and looking for an opportunity to learn as you do. The Diploma greatly supported the project I was working on at the time, running me through all the steps as I implemented them.

I have just completed a double diploma with CAL. I found all of the staff there very supportive indeed and did not experience any rudeness whatsoever. Unforeseen circumstances meant that i had to request an extension , CAL were very professional in their response and understanding. Studying online is not for everyone and can be difficult if you are returning back to study after a long period. However CAL are there to support you it just takes a little bit of time to get a response from your coach, but once you are speaking with them they clarify and help you with your course work. I would recommend sourcing a study group either students from CAL or somewhere else where you can bounce ideas off each other regarding the course. This will help you as you work through the self directed learning and complete your tasks and activities in the course.Thanks to all the team at CAL who helped me through my course and got me to the end.

I have just submitted Unit 10 and I must say it has been a tough course but feel I have put in what I wanted to get out of the course. I wanted to push myself so only asked for coaching advice a couple of times. Hard to juggle with kids and work but if you plan your time well it will work. Recommended course content and coaching were quick to respond. Thanks CAL

I recently completed the Double Diploma in Project Management | Leadership and Management. From my initial enquiry and dealings with Tristan who was super helpful, informative and supportive, through to starting the course with the help of Student engagement coach David who helped me every step of the way and checked in to see how I was getting on, The College for Adult Learning was a fantastic learning experience which exceeded my expectations. With each Unit completed the next would be unlocked straight away and marked within the times stated (generally in half the time). The feedback from the coaches was the best of all always super encouraging and supportive but also included much needed advice in areas that may require extra study or focus. Anything I was unsure of I simply booked a time that suited me for a coach to call me to discuss anything I was unsure about. I highly rate and recommend CAL and look forward to studying with them again in the near future! Thanks so much guys !!
