After completing my Child Care Course with Suzan Johnston I was successful in gaining the first job that I applied for - and I couldn't be happier. My knowledge, understanding of the role and my Suzan Johnston Qualifications made all the difference!”

Ira Kristiyanti
Child Care Assistant

I recently arrived from Indonesia and wanted a short, intensive course that offered excellent career opportunities. Fortunately, I enrolled in the Suzan Johnston Course and I acquired a job working as a Child Care Assistant before the course was even finished! Suzan Johnston opened opportunities for me to work in Australia in the field that I love! Thank you!”

“I have always wanted to work with children and SJ gave me the opportunity to begin my new career quickly (I had a job before the course finished) and with an amazing level of individual support and encouragement. I will commence further studies next year (a Bachelor of Education) and I owe it all to Suzan Johnston.”
