Choosing an RTO

At Belgravia Academy, we are passionate about helping you achieve your career goals!

At Belgravia Academy, we are dedicated to helping you reach your career goals! As a Registered Training Organisation (RTO), we understand that each RTO offers something unique, and choosing the right one is a key step in your educational journey. Finding the best RTO for you requires considering factors such as the courses offered, the industry expertise of the trainers, and the learning support available.

To help you get started, here are some helpful tips on how to choose a course provider:

Know what you want to study

First and foremost, it’s crucial to identify what you want to study. Vocational education in Australia is designed to link directly to specific job roles, which means your studies are focused on equipping you with the skills and knowledge required for that particular career path. For instance, if you aspire to become a lifeguard, you would enrol in a specialised skill set or course that covers the essential tasks, responsibilities, and safety protocols associated with pool lifeguarding.

Understanding the job or career you wish to pursue is key to determining the right course of study. Vocational training is highly practical and targeted, ensuring that you learn exactly what is needed to perform well in your chosen profession. Therefore, having a clear idea of your desired job role helps streamline your education choices and ensures you gain the qualifications directly relevant to your future career. Whether you’re looking into hospitality, fitness, aquatics, or tourism, knowing what career path you want to follow will guide your decision-making process and help you choose the most appropriate vocational training course for your goals.

Know about your RTO

At Belgravia Academy, we take pride in being experts in the industries in which we train you so we understand how important choosing an RTO can be. If you want the best insights and job opportunities available to you, choosing an RTO that works in the industry that you want to work in makes a difference. Our trainers have first-hand experience and knowledge, and they have contacts that can assist you. You may even have job opportunities waiting for you at the end of your training because we work with the broader Belgravia Group, which includes tourism, health, leisure, hospitality, inclusion, and aquatics first-hand.

Fastest isn’t always best

Learning something well takes time, and at Belgravia Academy, we understand that the fastest isn’t always the best. Many a course provider or RTO tries to make learning faster so that it costs them less, but we believe that learning should be about acquiring both the skills and knowledge you need when it comes to important things like saving lives. That’s why our short courses may be a little longer than other RTOs. We want you to leave with the skills and knowledge you need to succeed in your career.

Location, location, location

Locations are important, and at Belgravia Academy, we’ve got you covered. Do you learn better online or in a classroom? Can you get to your classroom easily? Choosing an RTO and course provider that fits your lifestyle is essential. We combine online theory with practical demonstration and onsite assessment for most of our programs. This makes getting to class easier and means you can study in your own time.

We also employ trainers in all states in Australia, so there are options when it comes to onsite assessment. Belgravia Academy uses Belgravia managed venues for our training, so it’s not uncommon for you to visit a leisure centre, an aquatic facility, a golf club, or a holiday park for your assessment. We believe these places are the best classrooms, and we’re excited to show you why!
