I studied my Certificate IV in Mental Health. I found the content to be quite easy as the learning material provided was informative and my trainer was always ready to offer support and guidance where i needed it.

I would recommend Kirana Colleges to anyone who is considering online study as the site is easy to follow, you have the flexibility to work at your own pace without due dates, and the guidance from the trainers was second to none with endless amounts of support. I would often hear back within the same day or next day whenver I sent in questions which allowed me to work through the assessments quickly.

I’m very satisfied with the teaching and course content. The teacher is great. The content is good. I’m so glad I took the chance to study even though I’m already 50 years old. I am finally able to get the job that I really like in community services and it has brought a lot of fulfillment.
