M. Nejepsa, (City of Yarra), 2018

"The best course I have done in a very long time.  Lots of information about the safety and use of the (Backhoe/Loader).  Would highly recommend to everyone.  Feel a lot more comfortable using the (Backhoe/Loader) now than what I did two weeks ago.  10/10."

N. Canales, (City of Yarra), 2017

J. Athanasi, (City of Yarra), 2016

"Excellent (Excavator, Skid Steer Loader, Backhoe/Loader) course.  If you just want a ticket GO to another training company.  If you want to learn how to be an operator and gain real knowledge and experience then this is the place to come.  I travelled over 1000km to do my training here for this exact reason."

B. Haylock, (Haylock Marine Services), 2016

 

"I just wanted to say thanks so much for the fun and informative day.  I was quite disheartened by the lack of help I received during the chainsaw purchase process ("Here it is, Luv, good luck!") and really quite terrified of using the damn thing.  Your course was set up in a way that we could all learn together.  No question was to simple and the practical aspects of the day were a great way to build confidence. I now realise I am still (and always will be) a chainsaw novice, but absolutely have respect for the machine and can approach my clean up jobs from a 'safety first' perspective.  Awesome job guys - keep it up!"

K. Kandelaars, (held at Romsey Neighbourhood House), 2018

"Thank you for the terrific day of instruction on Saturday. I left the day feeling far more confident in my skill set and most importantly, more confident that I could operate a chainsaw safely. While I have used a chainsaw a lot - I realised that there were a couple of highly crititical techniques which I had been doing wrong and that had the potential for serious injury - bad habits that in time would become more ingrained and risky. Now that I am aware of the correct technique, and the consequence of the wrong technique, the way I operate the chainsaw has changed for good. When I think about the potential injury which could result from my old ways and the personal and financial cost of such an injury, the cost of course is a bargain in comparison. The instruction was fun, energised and clear. (The trainer's) presentation and instruction methodology is relaxed and friendly, but has a serious focus when required. The mix of operating procedures and technical information about the chainsaw was a perfect balance - and I realise now that the two go hand in hand, and also what a finely tuned and precise tool a chainsaw is. I have a new found respect for my chainsaw and will treat it accordingly! Your organisation, preparation and equipment is second to none. Congratulations and keep up the great work."

M. Heine, (held at Romsey Neighbourhood House), 2018

"Thought course was great.  Covered a lot in a day. (The trainer) was a great teacher, made everything nice and clear, easy to understand, and we all felt comfortable enough to ask any questions. Would be great if there was a next step course to learn how to sharpen chain etc. just with a heap more practice with expert eyes to help with safe technique. I would highly recommend this course, as I've never touched a chainsaw before out of fear, but have gone away with knowledge I could safely use one if I needed to."

J. Taylor, (held at Romsey Neighbourhood House), 2018

"Thank you so much for the course on Saturday! And thanks for quickly sending through these pictures, Dad will definitely have me out there chainsawing with him next wood season! I really appreciated the emphasis on us participants having a go and practising, whether that be the cutting techniques or the chainsaw maintenance. I very much

Their pre-training course email and phone communications were excellent – prompt, efficient and constructively helpful. They go the extra mile.

Their Maryborough facilities are very professional and well equipped – training room, outside yard, equipment, discussion meeting points, refreshments, wash rooms.

(The trainer) is passionate about high competency equipment skills and safety.

The features of what and how he teaches are support, guidance and excellent feedback in learning and achieving equipment operation competency and optimisation, safety, equipment maintenance, competency assessment, skills certification.

The benefits are optimised operators – maximizing safety and profitable operation. No stupid practices/no costly mistakes.

"Growing a contracting business in Agriculture is exciting and challenging.  As my team grows, investing in their skills through proper accredited training is most important for safety and productivity.  We cannot avoid performing high-risk work and as an employer, providing the right training and keeping the correct records is necessary to ensure a safe work place and successful business.  Dealing with OH&S can be overwhelming.  Whilst a specific 'licence' is not required to drive a tractor or operate a chainsaw, how do I ensure and prove I have provided all the necessary training to my employees? It was a question All Skills Services Pty Ltd were able to help me answer.  (All Skills) is a small business and (their team) know the challenges first hand.  Their passion for their business is only surpassed by their passion for seeing people grow in skills and confidence to achieve their full potential. Their professionalism harnesses both their experience and passion as they, not only provided first class training in Tractor and Chainsaw Safety Awareness and Operation, but have resourced my business with practical material to ensure we are compliant.  (The trainer) is a very experienced operator in many fields and an engaging teacher.  He provided on-site training for my team using our tractor and attachments.  The Chainsaw course is fabuously resourced to provide practical training at their site in Maryborough.  My team consists of highly experienced operators and novices.  All of us have come away from our training experience with All Skills Services Pty Ltd with positive outcomes both in our skill levels and overall confidence in each other as a team."

S. Kumar, (Pakenham Crane Trucks), 2016

M. Waldron, (Flat Glass Supplies Industries), 2016

"No complaints.  The whole course was conducted in a very professional manner, easy to understand and in a comfortable environment. Thankyou to (the trainer) and the team, job well done.  I will definitely recommend All Skills to people in the future.

J. Goodwin, (Goodwin Trucking), 2016

"THE BEST TRAINING COURSE I HAVE EVER ATTENDED.  The attention to detail by (the trainer) was above and beyond what I expected the course to deliver.  We came away with so much more knowledge (not found in a book), due to (the trainer's) level of experience in the real working world.  I would advise anyone who wants a Vehicle Loading Crane licence, to go to All Skills Services, as you will get way more than just a ticket - you actually walk away knowing how to operate it safely and correctly.  And he's a rippa bloke too!  And (the Administration Manager) was fantastic in the office and nothing was a bother.  A really professional, well-run, experienced training company."

P. Zumbo, (City of Whittlesea), 2018

"Very comprehensive, very obvious (the trainer) is passionate about doing his job well.  Only thing I would suggest is to reduce the explanations for why (the trainer) needs to explain something to us - if that makes sense.  I think we all understand why its important to hear the explanation. Thanks." (Note from All Skills: We apologise for the repetition of the explanations, however as there were three participants in this course whose English was their second language, and a young student who wanted to better himself despite some learning issues, we considered this to be an effective way of emphasising the points).  

C. Boyer, (Owner Builder), 2018

"I found the course very interesting and worthwhile.  (The trainer) is an excellent tutor, very clear and really gets the point across.  He is down to earth and I was made to feel very comfortable.  I would highly recommend All Skills Services for any training at all."

I was so incredibly nervous walking in this morning and you both made me feel more confident sitting this course.  (The trainer) has a way of explaining things so you understandm no matter what your education level is.  (The Admin Manager) is so helpful and deals with all the paperwork which gives us headaches! Thanks so much!"

C. Hateley, (Owner Builder), 2018
