I did forklift training in the afternoon with Nik. He stays composed and has patience with me. Highly recommended !!

I had an overall great experience and took a lot of different courses: order picker, forklift, first aid, excavator, front-end loader, heights, and white card. I started off with forklift and since I haven't driven a car for years and haven't got my license it was a little difficult to drive at first, but I got a day of extra practice and became more confident in my driving ability before taking my forklift assessment. After that point I finished my excavator and loader tickets with confidence. The trainers and other staff for all the courses I took were cool and helpful and I had a good time. I'm considering to take traffic management as well to add on to my list of skills!

We had two different trainers (Nick & Rob) over the 2 days, both we're very good. We had a couple of new english speaking students, and both instructors took their time with everyone.It will be the first port of call for future training.

My experience in Start Training was one of my best decisions i ever made. Nev who was my instructor made me understand all aspects in the forklift perfectly. I was unsure to pass the text since it was my first time handle a forklift but was amazed to pass the assessment since I gained a lot of content from my instructor.

Excellent training consultants and in class teachers, both excellent and the service provided was excellent and super friendly.Plenty of morning/afternoon tea with small but adequate kitchen area facilities.Would be great to have a bigger area to have breaks, study or just relax a little bit. Stool areas just don't cut it for this type of thing.Highly recommend these guys for training, and am booked in to do more in the coming weeks.

I have plenty of experience on a forklift but had let my license expire and I was a little nervous about the written test but the course had us well prepared.

I'm really happy with the way this trainer COLIN trained the classroom. It couldn't have been any better. In saying that, it was my 2nd attempt as the first trainer just flew through the presentation without ensuring every student understands but I'm not gonna mention any names. And at the end, PAUL took our exams and he couldn't have been any more professional and funny at the same time. I'm really happy from these Legends PAUL & COLIN I strongly recommend these 2 LEGENDS

I had a First Aid and CPR Training, the trainer was professional and perfect in explaining details and brief the assignment instructions. We had lots of practicals assignments especially how to work with AED. The room was clean, and the practical tools were so hygiene. However the location might be a little confusing but you’ll find it. Overall I’m very satisfied with the training at Start Training.

Was informed by the person onsite that the course was not the right one for what I was looking for, organised to get a refund, the refund gets approved and 2 weeks later I still haven't seen the money back in my account. Then I call to ask about when I would expect it, got transferred to the person I'm suppose to speak to and no answer.Expect to be ripped off.
