What students say about our programs...

"It's been very valuable and I've already told a number of my colleagues about it"
Paul, PhD Student, The University of Queensland

"Thank you for such a great preparation course. Although I know there is a huge amount of work ahead of me, this 6-week research excellence program has given me the tools and confidence to move forward to the next chapter of my journey. I loved it and highly recommend it to those considering doing the PhD."
Tammy, PhD Student, The University of Queensland

"Thank you so much, Izelle. Being part of the group has been an inspiration. When I started I felt overwhelmed by how I was going to select and present all my research in a way that was lucid and, hopefully, interesting for other people to read. Step by logical step I got there with your help, even finding time to do extra research on the way. Being with other people who experiencing the same ups and downs was so important, too. My dissertation isnât perfect, but itâs the absolute best I could do; Iâm proud of it. So thanks to everyone.â Pam, Masters Student, University of Cumbria, UK

"I wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude for your invaluable guidance and support throughout the journey of writing my master's thesis. The team of expertise, the patience, and dedication have been key in shaping and guiding me through my research and helping me achieve this milestone. Izelle, I will always be thankful for your kindness, encouraging words, your follow up, and your time." Belen, Masters Student. UniversitÊ catholique de Louvain, Belgium

"I take this opportunity to thank you and your team for the excellent presentations and the advise/ tips on taking on PhD Thesis/ Publications. I could not thank you all enough. Your teachings and documents will be a reference for me, not just for my PhD now, but a skill that will be carried on into the future. I certainly will call in, should I need further assistance in my endeavor to PhD Completion. Where possible, refer some my colleagues your way."
Rendi, PhD Student, The University of Melbourne

"Hey Izelle... I got the news that I passed the PhD with no amendments. Thanks so much again for your help with everything!!!"
Simone, PhD Student, Australian Catholic University (Pass with No Corrections)

"As invaluable as this practical support was, what I appreciated most about Izelleâs mentorship was the emotional support that she provided. She was always very calm no matter what crisis or obstacle emerged. Her calmness helped me focus on finding solutions and move forward rather than dwelling on the âcatastropheâ. This was pivotal to my success.â Grace, PhD Student, Australian Catholic University (Pass with No Corrections)
