“Nic has exhibited a very professional approach at all times, providing detailed updates and reports accompanied by recommendations for future directions. He has been very reliable in executing his commitments, has always demonstrated sound pedagogical knowledge and creativity, accompanied by strong understanding and abilities in technical matters. ”

“Our business contracts Nic from NCD consulting as a consultant, student and staff trainer. I've always found him to be nothing but helpful and always professional. Nic is heavily involved in staff development and training and is also a key driver in making sure our systems and courses remain compliant. He is very quick to respond to emails and phone calls and I find his flexibility to be onsite a very big plus to deal with the bigger issues.”

“Nic proved to be a most flexible, patient and understanding person who became more like a colleague than a consultant, never telling people what to do but gently advising and assisting them to achieve their goals..”

"Nic has provided teaching, compliance and course development services for our Diploma courses for the past 12 months. His knowledge of the VET system and course information for TAE40116 is comprehensive and up to date and the enthusiasm he brings to teaching makes the topics interesting and meaningful for our learners."

"I would like to sincerely thank you, Nic, for all your hard work and effort in developing the project this year. It was such a big task and your commitment and professionalism have been greatly appreciated by all."

"Nic has demonstrated his ability to communicate most effectively with all personality types and focussed on enabling, always engendering a strong sense of "can do" in those he mentored."
