TESTIMONIALS

From our Students

Great experience with the S2C team and Gaven my Assessor. He made the evidence gathering process simple to understand and was thorough. I had a busy roster, he was able to assist me in the evenings and always made time to hop online when I had a question. Thanks Gav
Ashley T
Founder/Managing Director - Graduate Certificate in Strategic Leadership
If you are considering pursuing RPL certification, I would strongly encourage you to engage with Gaven and team at S2C. Having ex-serving members on their team to talk through my experience really set them apart.
David B
ADF - Australian Special Air Service
The turnaround time for my RPL certification was outstanding, despite the level of detail involved, everything was processed efficiently and without unnecessary delays. The entire experience was smooth, professional, and stress-free.
Alex R
Transitioning ADF Member
What really stood out was their thoroughness. They carefully reviewed my background, asked the right questions to draw out relevant experience, and ensured that nothing was overlooked. Their attention to detail gave me complete confidence that my application was comprehensive and accurately reflected my skills and career history.
Shane P
Associate Director and active ADF Reservist
The communication throughout the process was excellent - responsive, supportive, and proactive. Any questions I had were answered promptly, and I always felt informed about where my application was at.
Paul K
Flight Lieutenant - Royal Australian Air Force
I can’t recommend S2C highly enough. From my very first enquiry, the team were professional, approachable, and genuinely committed to helping me navigate the RPL process with confidence. They took the time to clearly explain each step, outline what evidence was required, and ensure I understood how my prior service and experience aligned with the qualification outcomes.
Darren R
Former ADF - now Tactical Instructor
After 12 years in the Army I had no idea how to translate my experience into civilian qualifications. S2C made the whole process straightforward. I had my Diploma of Leadership and Management within weeks.
Mark R.
Former ADF - now Operations Manager
As a paramedic transitioning to health administration, I needed formal qualifications quickly. The RPL process was thorough, fair, and the team kept me informed every step of the way.
