"I would like to express my gratitude for giving me the opportunity to receive my business certificate. Yours, Maddy's, Vickie's, and the team of Edmund Barton's College's cooperation and effort in preparing and delivering the course is truly appreciated. I couldn't have done it without you!
The online modules made the process very manageable and stress-free, as the learning was also very interactive given all the checkpoints. I am glad to have completed the course through Edmund Barton College as it was extremely convenient to my timings and I was able to complete it within a few months before school had started. Once again, thank you for your outstanding support!"

"I would like to say thank you to the team at Edmund Barton College, I know every time I have contacted the college the employees have been amazing with their customer service."
Ashley G
Graduate - Certificate IV in Business Administration
"I have thoroughly enjoyed completely this Diploma, it was something that I thought was out of my reach. My Mentor’s kind words every step of the way has been encouraging and motivating. I certainly found the last two topics the hardest to get motivated to do, as life certainly got busier and procrastination kicked in. I have finished just in time for the festive season."
