"Thank you ACOA! My business is starting to grow.

I chose Clinical Aromatherapy and the electives. At one stage I didn’t think I could get through all the modules and hold a full time job, but Michelle would continue to engage with me and would let me know that I was almost there.

It showed me that at any age you can gain qualifications with confidence from the support to get from the college.Then to my surprise I enrolled in another Diploma. This was an easy process of RPL which helped work out how many modules were left."
