Take it from building student Simon who made the big switch

Building student Simon Ramsay is on the pathway to his building licence. He was enrolled in the online Certificate IV in Building and Construction with another training provider. But Simon wasn’t satisfied with the level of service with this training provider. He was struggling to learn and progress through the course. He contacted the Master Builders who helped Simon transition across. His completed units of competency and student records were moved seamlessly from the other training provider. Simon is now set up for success as a flourishing student. Master Builders helped Simon make the big switch and he couldn’t be happier with his decision.

“I’m impressed with the currency, relevancy, and specificity of what Master Builders offer”, Simon says. “It’s great to have access to trainers in the Q&A forums who are licensed builders working in the industry. They understand my way of learning and help me with my questions. The trainers help by relating the question to the real-life working environment. The Master Builders course is easy to navigate so that I don’t waste time on the computer figuring out what to do next.”

The Master Builders online Q&A Forums for building students

There is a better way of learning with the Master Builders Q&A forums. Building students can access the forums online from anywhere on any device. They are beneficial to students who are enrolled in online qualifications and Recognition of Prior Learning programs. The industry expert trainers are ready to answer students’ questions about subjects such as Finance, Project Management, Building, Health and Safety, and more. Students can interact with the trainers and listen to other student’s questions. Students can seek and receive clarification on any aspects of their learning and assessment requirements.

Master Builders trainer Richard Lansdowne explains.

“The most common issue I find is that students overthink the question and then hesitate to submit their answers. I help the students to understand the questions more effectively by breaking them down and putting them into the context of industry examples. The online Q&A forums are invaluable face-to-face sessions between trainers and students. They are particularly helpful for students who are busy with their workdays. Since the Q&A forums started, I have seen a real positive impact on how students overcome their understanding of the questions. Building students are now striving to complete their assessments correctly the first time and on time”.
