Our track record of success

“I’ve really enjoyed mentoring sessions with Kathleen through the Self-Employment Assistance Program. The sessions helped me to voice out my business vision and plan, get feedback on my ideas, stay on track with my tasks and communicate new offers.
It is so important to have someone that keeps you accountable and listens to you as working for yourself can get overwhelming, especially at the start of the business endeavours. I would highly recommend the Self-Employment Assistance Program to any new business entrepreneurs.“

“MTC has provided me with a wide range of skills, abilities, and knowledge. Further, through their mentoring program, they have provided extremely valuable advice in many aspects of the business operations.
Finally, as I gained a Bus (Management) / LLB (Honours), I incorrectly assumed I would not learn anything new or of value. The course work, combined with the classes, were a great foundation for the establishment of my business, and the ongoing mentoring has provided guidance to keep me on track to reaching my personal set targets.”

“Being a Mum of 5, life can easily get in the way, especially when it comes to my business. I knew how to do some things but had no real business knowledge until I found MTC Australia.
With Workforce Australia’s Self-Employment Assistance, I learned how to operate my small business. The ongoing mentoring was also super helpful and has continued to drive my success. I had an amazing experience learning through MTC Australia and have come leaps and bounds ever since.”

“I have been delighted to have Simone Moss (Redfern) as my Industry and Skills Coach. In the short time I’ve had Simone’s assistance, I’ve become very aware of her amazing, and realistic, understanding of the nature of being a small (seed) business owner. Particularly one who has survived an unplanned, global pandemic, and the associated business challenges that came, unexpectedly, with Covid.
Thanks to Simone, I now have an MTC business mentor, and I am able to access other small business avenues of support and training, relevant to the nature of my business. Accolades of thanks to Simone and MTC Australia!”
