What Our Client Says

Course was a requirement. Could have been condensed slightly.
I attended the 5-day HSR training course. Our trainer, Kevin, was excellent. He covered all the material carefully and efficiently. He got everyone in the goup involved, and found ways to keep everyone engaged.Need some training? See if AlertForce offer a course.
Booked three of my staff in for Silica Awareness & Asbestos Training - friendly team to deal with, quick responses when required - definitely a one stop shop for all your training needs
Kevin was a fantastic trainer, he was patient and understanding whilst all 12 of us were learning a new trade, I appreciate all the effort he and others put in to the course, thank you.
Alertforce delivered training in an easy way to understand online for Silica Awareness 10830NAT Thank you
Good service, easy to deal with.
Amazing Team
Very friendly , supportive and professional team.
Awesome and easy to understand coarse.
As a resident of Malaysia, I decided to enroll in this course to upskill and enhance my professional capabilities. The training center has exceeded my expectations, offering a high-quality learning environment that is both good and convenient. One of its major advantages is its easy-to-find location, which is particularly beneficial for international students like myself. The center's proximity to Arncliffe station is a significant plus, as the close access to train transportation makes commuting a breeze. This convenient setup allows me to focus on my studies without worrying about logistical challenges.
Terrific service and support. The process was very swift and the team at Alertforce were very attentive to our needs and busy schedule. Thank you immensely for your amazing service.
