When you looking to complete a certification through an RTO, you are really looking for a reputable business that provides great mentors, great facilities and flexible learning delivery options. Luckily, Ausinet provides all of these. I was looking for an RTO that could facilitate majority of the theory online, to accommodate studying around my 9-5. Ausinet came up as the most reputable option in this category, and I was honestly blown away by the quality of the whole course. Response times to your queried questions, explanations from trainers during your practical week, all fantastic. Thank-you once again for all your assistance! If you're looking at a career start or upskilling your current trade, don't hesitate to get started with Ausinet.

Just completed my cert 2 in electrotechnology with ausinet and would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking to do the same. They made the experience thoroughly enjoyable and stress free, offering immense support and ensuring that I wasn’t only “completing” the cert but fully understanding what I was learning. Sean was brilliant and so were all the trainers in providing a positive environment and setting me up for success.

I would highly recommend people to attend this cource. Extremely knowledgeable, teachers that actually care if you understand and can apply what’s being taught.

I recently completed my instrumentation training with Ausinet, and it was a fantastic experience. The practical hands-on training sessions and real-world scenarios were excellent and really helped bridge the gap between theory and application. Big thanks to the instructors and support team for their clear guidance and well-organized program. Highly recommended for anyone looking to upskill in the trade!

I recently completed the Battery Design and Installation course. The theory component was completed online, followed by the practical training at their office in Darra. I found the course well structured and informative. The online theory allowed me to work through the material at my own pace, while the practical component was particularly valuable as it provided hands-on experience and helped reinforce what had been covered in the theory. The trainers were knowledgeable, approachable and happy to answer questions. Being able to work with the equipment during the practical training made it much easier to understand the design, installation and commissioning requirements for battery systems. Overall, I found the course very worthwhile and would recommend it to anyone looking to improve their knowledge and practical skills in battery design and installation.

Just completed my national GAP Training with Ausinet and highly recommend anyone needing to do so to book in a call with them. From the beginning the course is explained in detail and professionally by the team with all cost outlined from the get go with staged payments to make things easier. The online training is very informative and easy to follow and assessed on Fridays or Sundays with online exams. The Exemplar profiling, although daunting is made easy to follow by Ausinet and the admin team are at hand to assist if needed. The practical was a great week with lots to take in but Sean, Shan and the team helped us though it, wasn’t as bad as I was expecting but learnt a lot and feel a lot more comfortable with the Australian standards and how to navigate them. Looking forward to getting my Licence and career as a sparky in Aus. Thanks Ausinet and would recommend them to anyone looking to complete their GAP training when arriving in Aus.

Thank you to Sean, Shan and the rest of the team at Ausinet who have made my electrical gap training and capstone such a smooth process. The trainers answered all technical questions for the online learning very promptly, the admin team were great at answering any questions I had about my exemplar cards and the whole team made the capstone week very enjoyable and took all the stress out of it in the first hour. Made the trip from Perth to Brisbane based on a recommendation from a coworker and I’m glad I did! Highly recommend using Ausinet for anybody needing to transfer their international qualifications. Thanks guys👍🏼

I sat the Electrical Nat GAP training course and from day one it felt like Sean and the team were right behind me. From the first phone call I had with Sean I felt as if I would get through the course and receive my certification. Shan, who was my trainer was very knowledgeable and answered any questions myself or the group I was in fired at him. I highly recommend using these guys if you wish to obtain your licences.

Exceptional experience doing the Grid-Connected PV Design and Install course at Ausinet. The blended delivery model worked perfectly around my work schedule. The theory modules are incredibly thorough, and the face-to-face practical days gave us plenty of space, time, and high-quality gear to test our skills on. The trainers really know their stuff inside out and go above and beyond to support you. It's a great environment to learn in, and it prepares you fully for the accreditation process. Will definitely be back for the battery storage units!

Really happy with the Solar PV course. The trainers were knowledgeable, approachable and explained everything clearly, especially the more technical parts of the course. The training was practical and relevant to actually working in the industry, rather than just focusing on getting through the assessments. Any questions I had were answered properly and the overall course was well organised. I came away feeling much more confident with solar PV design and installation. Would definitely recommend them to any electrician looking to complete their solar accreditation training.
