Manual Handling

Muscular skeletal injuries in workplaces are the biggest cost to insurance premiums, lost time for workers and cause of injuries to staff working in the care sector, which is why using aids correctly is so important. We recognise the importance of correct practices for manual handling and this workshop is designed to give hands on experience using a range of mechanical and assistive aids that workers use in the community health sector.

After some friends revealed they were engaged, I said, "why don't I be your celebrant?" After looking through a few different training institutions, NIET popped up. It's a long way from my house in Brunswick East... But I am so glad I chose them! Judy (celebrancy trainer) is one of the most spectacular people I've ever met. Have formed a new group of friends from completing the course, and feel so confident based on NIET and Judy's wealth of knowledge, organisation, diligence and specifically Judy's guidance. I've already recommended a friend, and I'm sure there will be many, many more. Thank you Judy, so very much, for opening up a new path for my future ❤️

I have recently completed Certificate 3 in Individual Support in Ageing and Disability
I can’t speak highly enough about my teacher Sam

Sam was always contactable, kind and knowledgeable whenever I required assistance from her during the course

I would highly recommend NIET to anyone who wants to up-skill their training or start a new career path

A wonderful experience studying at NIET. The course covered all the aspects I needed to commence a new career. Information prior to starting was detailed, so I knew exactly what to expect. Sam was my trainer and I couldn't speak highly enough of her. She is a wealth of information and offered support and guidance the entire time. I'd highly recommend NEIT to anyone!

Signed up with NIET to upskill . Decision based on convenient course schedule and review rating . Since completing , all I can say is I am so pleased I chose NIET !
This was a fast paced course but the delivery was thoroughly organised . Petra was always available and a listening ear to debrief to . All subjects thoroughly explained / demonstrated . Felt very supported throughout .
The resources were generous and the training centre in Frankston comfortable with good amenities .

To potential students, Judy is a well established teacher in her field of Celebrancy, with hundreds of weddings under belt. I give her 5 stars for experience, knowledge and understanding. Celebrant course is a very demanding, don't under estimate the time needed to finish the course. Always keep up to date with study. Judy is very approachable if you need to ask questions. Could not have asked for a better teacher. Good luck.

I recently completed the Certificate IV in Celebrancy and it was such a fantastic experience. I had enrolled with an online provider initially but changing to the face to face with NEIT. I felt more prepared with my one week of face to face learning than online for 6 months. I cannot endorse Judy highly enough. Such a great trainer who goes above and beyond for her students and knows her stuff like the back of her hand. She explains everything so clearly and there is never a stupid question according to her. She is approachable and understands the learning process as a student and supports all her students through the course and beyond. I actually miss the learning with her.

I have recently completed Certificate 4’s in Disability, Aged Care and Leisure & Health.
My teachers Sam and Mary were absolutely wonderful. Having worked in the industries as well they were able to share real life experiences with us to prepare us for work.
They were available in class and via email or phone if we needed help whilst studying at home.
They were there every step of the way to ensure we would complete our certificates with flying colours as well as be work ready.
I would highly recommend NIET.
I have now been working in the Disability Sector for 20 months and am absolutely loving my new career.

I completed my Cert1V in Agecare in 2020 and I found it to be enjoyable friendly atmosphere, our teacher Sam Gillick was the best teacher there.
I made so many new friends and learnt so much and really brought me out of my shell. I now with the guidance of Sam have employment at a Agecare facility that I totally love. I feel I should have done this qualification years ago.
A amazing journey and experience in the 12months I have been working. NEIT are so professional and nothing is too much to help anyone of us out.
Well done Sam and NEIT and thank you 😊

I have been lucky to be part of the team at Nepean Industry Edge Training as an early childhood trainer and assessor. I have been working with wonderful people, who are friendly, warm and approachable. We have fantastic rooms , with a lot of resources for simulation. Resources are available to support students. The manager takes personal approach and happy to support all students, building relationships from day one. Highly recommended RTO !
