I'm so impressed with the Food Safety Handler (FSH) course at Short Course Australia! Dean's teaching style is engaging, informative, and easy to follow. The course covered all the essential topics, from food handling and storage to personal hygiene and contamination prevention. Dean's expertise and passion for food safety shone through in every lesson, making the course both enjoyable and educational. I feel confident and prepared to handle food safely in my workplace. Highly recommend this course to anyone looking to improve their food safety knowledge and skills!

Yesterday I took the White Card certification course. My teacher was Catherine. The reason for this email is because I would like to file a complaint with her and, if possible, receive at least half of my money back. I didn't have a good experience. When it came time to take the final exam, she kicked me out of the class simply because I didn't understand what she was saying when I finished the class. I find this discriminatory. At no point during the class did I feel comfortable with her because of her personality. A classmate didn't have page 17, and when she mentioned the situation to the teacher, she responded, "You don't know page 17, go to page 17." What kind of answers are those from a teacher, especially when you're still paying for a course that should at least be more professional and empathetic. Before starting the final exam, she said in front of everyone, "If I don't want you to pass the course, you won't pass." What trust can I have in a teacher like that? Aren't they supposed to teach more even though they know that not all students or assistants have English as their first language? Also, before starting the class, she told me not to slow down because she doesn't care and that's her way of being: she speaks quickly. I truly didn't feel confident at any point. When it was time to hand in the final test, she asked us to fill out the information she told us to do. I didn't complete everything because I didn't understand what she was saying (she also said not to ask her to repeat it). She checked "the activity" and saw that I hadn't completed everything. She just took my test and told me to "study harder," with no option to repeat or any other explanation. I don't know if this is part of her policy or her values, but it seems very rude and unprofessional on her part. This isn't the first time I've taken a certification course, and I've never felt this way, much less with a teacher as tyrannical as Catherine. I left the room with no information about anything. I'd like my refund, or at least half of it. I've wasted my day and I don't want to lose my money.

Hi, I want to share my review regarding my experience with espresso barista trainer. My trainer is Remy, his way of teaching is very good. He teaches everything very politely and clearly give instructions how to make perfect coffee. I also suggest to my friends to visit there who wants to become barista. Thank you for today, I really enjoyed my class.

Graham came across as arrogant and should get off his moral high horse. He spent far too long going over basic RCG content and rushed through the actual Advanced RCG material. He claimed only those who took his RCG course were correct and repeatedly called others incompetent, even though it was clear people were uncomfortable speaking up due to his behaviour . He also took multiple personal breaks, spoke constantly about himself and how he would change the coursework and made constant, unprofessional jokes toward one young girl. The session was poorly run, unprofessional, and absolutely not worth $250 and DEFINITELY not worth tipping him as he suggested we should at the end!

Excellent course conducted by course instructer, George. He demonstrated to the class how important it is to understand the laws in place that we all need to adhere to prior to undertaking an application for a liquor license.

I had a very disappointing experience with this class. I was 10 minutes late, and the instructor, a woman, immediately kicked me out, even though I explained my situation. I had to rebook the session, which ended up costing me not just the class fee, but also travel expenses, parking, and the time I took off from work. After rebooking, I joined a Zoom class, which was going fine at first. However, my laptop is old, and sometimes the video had a slight delay, though I could still hear everything clearly. I had prepared thoroughly using the provided handbook. I asked the instructor why I couldn't see the video properly, and she called me on a break, only to tell me to leave and rebook the class. I explained the issue with my laptop, but she refused to let me stay and kicked me out. She was very rude and dismissive, and it felt like she was being discriminatory, especially since I am not white. Despite my multiple requests, she wouldn't listen, which was incredibly frustrating. I ended up wasting the entire day, and it caused me a lot of mental stress. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this place, particularly if you're not white. This instructor should not be teaching as she lacks basic respect and common sense. It was a terrible experience overall.

I completed my RSA, RCG, and ARCG courses here (both online and in-class) and overall they?ve been great. The trainers are absolutely amazing. I?m not usually one to leave reviews, but I have to say that Graham is the best trainer I?ve ever had. For the online ARCG course I took on Friday (13/12/24), I was quite nervous and lacked confidence, especially since I?m new to the industry. However, he made the lessons easy to follow and even helped us review the RCG material at the start, which made the ARCG much easier to grasp. Certificate arrived very quickly.

Spent 2 hours commuting to the training centre and back, only for the class to be cancelled three minutes after the intended commencement time. No admin or payroll staff was present on site, just the contracted trainers that teach the classes. It turned out I was the only student that was booked in for the class, but SCA claimed that the class was cancelled due to the trainer calling in sick, which may or may not be true. Regardless, my one star review goes to the owner Jonathon Ainscough who thought a very brief apology email would be adequate compensation for my time wasted. It seems like there a plenty of other reviews of people satisfied with the contracted trainers themselves which I can't speak to, but the admin/management of this business is poor and I'd recommend going elsewhere.

Had Graham today for the RSA course. He was very thorough and educational. Gave great support to ensure we had learn everything needed to successfully complete all the assessments. Highly recommended:) The costumer service staff were also very good to speak with. They helped me re schedule to a different day when I couldn't make it in. Highly recommended doing short courses here.

Very poor customer service. I have completed white card course today and requested that if I can get my certificate today only as I have work commitment. I have got very poor response from customers service team. Even I asked if this can be done but not willing to help at all. Course delivery was excellent.

Have you completed a New Entrant Liquor Licensing or Responsible Service of Alcohol (RSA) course with Short Courses Australia in the past?
It is good practice for food businesses to ensure that before anyone is allowed to start work as a food handler, they should at least receive oral or written instruction about the essentials of food hygiene.
Completing an approved Responsible Service of Alcohol (RSA) program gives participants the skills and knowledge to contribute to a safe and enjoyable environment in licensed premises.
Heat stroke is an uncommon but life threatening complication of grossly elevated body temperature with exercise in heat stressed settings. Whilst heat stroke risk can be minimised by the use of predictive tools (e.g. Sports Medicine Australia's UV Illness and Heat Guide), the risk cannot be fully eliminated.
On 5 June 2018, the Victorian Parliament passed the Liquor and Gambling Legislation Amendment Act 2018 (the LGLA Act). The LGLA Act amends the Liquor Control Reform Act 1998 (LCR Act) which will mean a number of changes for liquor licensees.
