What people say

RSPCA Victoria

""The conflict resolution and ADR training by Ripple was engaging and thought provoking. Whilst it was a full day course it went quite quickly with the whole process run professionally and smoothly. The trainer was insightful and shared real stories that kept the course highly engaging and a lot of it was applicable to our business. Would highly recommend this course to any business looking to develop their staff.""

Beep Services

""Didn't feel like 3.5 hours, time flew, went through a lot of information, broken down into easy to understand sections. Highly recommend for a short course.""

Albany Hospice

""Working with Helen in the lead up to the workshop and then with Bobbi as our workshop facilitator was a great experience. Helen was able to take my brief in early conversations to ensure that content was relevant with practical outcomes. Bobbi as our workshop facilitator very quickly understood our workflows and pain points and gave great advice backed up by frameworks that the team can use in their day-to-day when interacting with clients. We had an excellent role-play session that was both hilarious and very real at the same time. I would not hesitate in recommending Ripple Learning, our team reference conversations from the workshop in our team meetings and actively use our workshop learnings with our clients. Thank you.""

""Ripple Learning are wonderful, and I couldn’t recommend them enough. They provided an in-depth presentation about having difficult conversations and how to manage them while also staying professional. They provided well-rounded examples that were industry specific, and were very informative about the different kinds or groups of people/personalities we’d cross paths with. The session was super beneficial both professionally and personally. Excited to see how the relationships around me flourish, thanks to Helen and everyone at Ripple Learning.""

Anthony Bruhn

Melbourne Girls Grammar

""Our team really enjoyed the training and all walked away with a new perspective on conflict resolution and how to avoid or handle it better. We were pleasantly surprised with how engaging it was as opposed to a box ticking course. There are many aspects of the course that are relatable to everyday and family life.

Jack is an excellent trainer and really connected with the group, quickly picked up on the team dynamics and adapted the training to keep it interesting. He would be by far one of the best trainers that Unique Building Partners have seen running an adult learning course.""
