Trainers with Real-World Care Experience
Skillmate RTO is managed by Besty and Sreeja, both registered nurses with TAE Certificate IV and over 20 years of experience in the healthcare system. They lead a team of suitably qualified trainers who share the same commitment to delivering quality education and practical learning.
Together, they bring a wealth of real-world experience and ensure that training is delivered in simple, clear English, so every learner understands exactly what they need to know. Their approach focuses on safe, hands-on, and compassionate practice, making learning both effective and relatable.
