Testimonial

During the Diploma of Leadership and Management course at NTCA I learnt what my leadership style is and how it affects my ability to lead.
I also became aware of other leadership styles I could use. The piece on values was very thought-provoking, as I never realized until now how my values affect my decisions and behaviour. Time well spent.

– Priyanka Devi,

I felt the Diploma of Leadership and Management course in NTCA is very well structured. We had the opportunity to do some actual presentations, which I found helpful, as I learn when given the chance to practice. My Trainer showed us a lot of techniques we can use to persuade and influence others. The course was highly motivating and interactive. A refreshing experience!
