Kirana Colleges

I had a wonderful experience completing my course at Kirana College. The teachers were professional, knowledgeable, and very supportive throughout my studies.

Do your homework first! Limited modules are released. And when they do, you are then required to role play to complete the majority of them. This requires you to write the script. You then come into difficulty when they want 3 people in the role… Read more

play. It’s hard finding one particularly when you’ve chosen to do this online which for most is at night or remote location. The communal group for finding a role play buddy is time consuming. Overall you waste time waiting for a role play buddy to then unlock your next module. This is not suitable for an evening or remote option in my opinion. Look elsewhere!

Horrible experience.i left half way through my course Cert III aged care and disability. You have a lot of role plays and if you miss a tiny thing (they make you re do the whole thing) and if you got 1 quiz question wrong you have to do it all over… Read more

again after a phone interview. The communication is dreadful and and I’m more than happy to leave half way through and go somewhere else. The teachers are rude and not helpful. These scammers say you will be supported but it’s a lie. Don’t waste your money on these scammers!! They don’t mark your work for atleast 6 weeks and they never answer there phones.

I had a wonderful experience studying at Kirana Colleges while completing my dual qualification in Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC). I successfully completed my dual course in just 15 months, and I am truly grateful for the support and guidance I received throughout my studies. A special thank you to **Jessica Gilbert** for being an… Read more ·  1

amazing trainer. She was always supportive, patient, and encouraging, and her clear guidance and constructive feedback helped me stay motivated throughout my course. I would also like to thank all the other trainers and staff at Kirana Colleges for their dedication, kindness, and willingness to help whenever I needed assistance.

The learning materials were well-organized, and the course provided a great balance of practical and theoretical knowledge that prepared me for working in the early childhood sector. The friendly and supportive learning environment made my journey enjoyable and successful.

I highly recommend Kirana Colleges to anyone looking to build a career in Early Childhood Education and Care. Thank you to Jessica, all the wonderful teachers, and the entire Kirana Colleges team for helping me achieve this important milestone.

My studies started off well however 2 months after I started they changed some of the assessments in 3 or more units. I was overseas for 5 weeks and could not complete all of this before it changed even though I’d already started the units. I emailed about my concerns but they said it was too bad. Why is a course that I’ve paid over $3.5K for… Read more

changing after I’ve started? Turns out most of the questions were the same so it was just a complete waste of time to redo the same answers I’d already done. Then I start placement and my teacher forgets to release 11 booklets of information I have to fill out. Someone in admin picked it up but I was only 3 days before finishing placement that I had to rush filling out information and so did my trainer. When I was finishing my last units I was struggling with a topic and sent my teacher 3 seperate emails, none of which were replied to. I emailed a different teacher and got a response telling me to email my teacher, which I explained I had already done with no success! The lack of support in the end meant I’ve wasted 2 months waiting for completion when I could have been working instead. They told me when I signed up that I would have to complete a few role play videos of things like shaving a balloon and handwashing etc. but they did not tell me I would have to complete 20+ videos and have extra people in most of them. I don’t want to be on camera so I found it very hard to ask anyone else to as well.

I completed my Certificate III in Individual Support (Ageing & Disability) at Kirana Colleges and had a very positive learning experience. The college provided a supportive and well-structured environment that helped me build both practical skills and confidence in the aged care and disability sector. My teachers, Gay and Cecilia were very… Read more ·  1

knowledgeable, patient, and supportive throughout the course. They explained concepts clearly and provided valuable guidance during both theory and practical training. Their encouragement helped me develop the skills needed for real workplace situations.

I would also like to sincerely thank Roslin and Fatima from the Industrial Pathways team for supporting me throughout the placement process, as well as all the other staff at Kirana Colleges for their guidance and assistance.

Overall, I am very grateful for the training and support I received at Kirana Colleges, and I would highly recommend Kirana Colleges to anyone looking to start a career in the care industry.

Thanks Nilashi Wijewardena

I like the online, self-paced nature of study, Kirana helped get me back on track if I hadn't logged in or offered assistance. Teacher responded efficiently and course was very thoroughly presented. Show reply

so much smoother. Every staff member I interacted with was helpful and genuinely invested in my success. Thank you!

Good and flexible college,teachers were always responding on time to my questions and were always willing and available to help me with any challenges I had concerning my course.Study portal is easy to navigate.They would call me from time to time to check my course progress which made me feel supported.

First online course and found it frustrating to not have anyone to bounce off. Also found it challenging more so with first teacher that it would take sometimes nearly a week to get a phone call back. So much work to do when completing work placement compared to other students at other colleges. I think overall the course was good, but the work… Read more

placement is where the hand on experience is effective. Would of been good to have my teacher come to the aged care facility and see and access instead of having all those further modules. Not something to be fair I would look at recommending. I would definitely suggest a classroom environment. Maybe that the way I learn better. Again, the ability to find work placement seemed to be a challenge as well. I enjoyed the course content but in reality, when you're in the facility it's different especially when providing reporting etc.

Took my money for an online course then expected me to complete what I can only describe as an acting class. No contact from teachers and staff absolute waste of money.

Misleading advice, financial stress, and poor communication — DON’T ENROL I enrolled with Kirana College in a Childcare course after being advised by one of their staff that this would lead me to a straight pathway to permanent residency after completing the qualification and gaining one year of work experience. This advice was a major factor in… Read more

my decision to enroll, especially given my difficult financial situation at the time.

Later, after consulting with registered migration agents, I was informed that this information was not accurate for my circumstances and that the course was not the best migration pathway. Had this been clearly explained from the start, I would not have enrolled.

I acknowledge that I should have verified the information independently. However, the advice was presented with such confidence that I did not feel the need to question it. I even attempted to clarify this information via email with the staff but received no response.

When I tried to act and requested help with the cancellation/withdrawal by submitting a contact form, I didn't receive any call back or email, which led me to just calling them. And instead of a fair exit, I was offered a downgrade, which felt like being pushed to continue paying.

This experience left me misled, financially pressured, and trapped. If you are considering enrolling, especially for migration-related reasons, DON’T ENROL without seeking independent advice first.

I recommend Kirana for anyone who wants to work while gaining a qualification.l completed community services, which was challenging at times, especially the role plays and living in a small community meant l often had to rely on people l knew to help. Despite these minor challenges the course structure worked well for my circumstances and enabled me to achieve my goals. Show reply

I was very happy with Kirana Colleges. The staff are great and very accomodating. I completed my certificate 4 in Mental Health. Although we had the curriculum change during my studies, it was a smooth change and didn't affect my workload.

It is a very good school, the teachers and students experience team members are very knowledgeable and helpful when it comes to teaching and communication. I found the course very interesting and easy to learn because I did it at my own pace. It was a great experience. Show reply
