A selection of short courses focused on specific content lets me tailor training for the individual members of my team. Paul is extremely knowledgeable, straight to the point and avoids the ‘fluff’.

“Taryk and I attended a recent Property Management session on the current ‘hot topics’ in our industry. We were so impressed with the content and presentation that we followed up by booking Paul for in house training at our Annual Conference. With a team of 20 property managers, its important that we remain informed of any legislation updates and Paul is simply the best trainer in South Australia for this. Having Paul present directly to our team has enabled us to tailor a workshop specifically for our needs and Paul and his team have been an absolute delight to work with.”
