chevron_right NATIONAL FOOTPRINT
chevron_right Synergy Education is proud to offer services nationwide, reaching clients across Australia, including those in regional and remote areas. This national footprint allows Synergy Education to deliver high-quality training wherever it is needed, ensuring that all locations, no matter how remote, receive the same level of attention and expertise.
chevron_right One of the ways Synergy Education provides value to clients is by including travel at no additional cost. This means organisations in even the most distant locations can access expert training without worrying about extra expenses, making Synergy Education a cost-effective partner for first aid and safety training needs.
chevron_right INDUSTRY-SPECIFIC TRAINING
chevron_right Synergy Education delivers fully contextualised First Aid, CPR, and safety training, aligned to the specific risks, regulatory requirements, and operational realities of each industry. By tailoring content to each workplace, Synergy Education ensures training is highly relevant, immediately applicable, and deeply embedded into each organisation’s safety culture.
chevron_right Clients that have benefited from Synergy Education’s contextualised approach to training include Translink, Queensland Government - Department of Education, Rawcorp, Goodstart Early Learning, G8 Education, and Buccini Transport.
chevron_right CLIENT SERVICES MANAGER
chevron_right A designated Synergy Education Client Services Manager (CSM) is assigned to each client, to be the main point of contact for their organisation. The CSM’s role is to ensure the safety training program runs smoothly and reduces the time that the client's internal team spends coordinating training, by taking on all of the course organisation, course communication, scheduling, and certificate management.
chevron_right COURSE DEVELOPMENT
chevron_right While the national standards for CPR training, safety, and first aid training rarely change, Synergy Education feels strongly that no class, story, or scenario should ever be the same, which is why courses change every 12 months. This ensures learners are kept on their toes and are continually learning with each year’s training session.
chevron_right Through extensive research and consultation, it has been identified that while staff are aware that their organisation has policies, they rarely read them (nor read updated versions), and their level of understanding and practical application is often low. Synergy Education assists by embedding these policies into teaching content. As an example, Synergy Education uses each client's own Risk Minimisation Plan for Anaphylaxis when discussing anaphylaxis and reducing risk in the workplace. A copy is present in the session for discussion, and the trainer leads discussion around identifying risks and administering appropriate treatment.
chevron_right PARTNERSHIP AND COLLABORATION
chevron_right The bespoke nature of Synergy Education’s training focus ensures that Synergy Education operates, for all intents and purposes, as an extension of an organisation's WHS team. This means that during the program development stage, Synergy Education works closely with key stakeholders across each client's organisation to ensure that training products not only meet internal relevant compliance frameworks, but maintain broader units of competency for accreditation, including ASQA and AQF requirements.
chevron_right QUALITY SYSTEMS – ANNUAL IMPROVEMENTS
chevron_right Synergy Education's stringent annual course redesign aims to improve the quality and industry relevance of the course curriculum each year through a 6-step process:
chevron_right 1. Industry Engagement
chevron_right 2. Consultation with Learning & Safety
chevron_right 3. Initial course design & development
chevron_right 4. Course trial
chevron_right 5. Final course design & development
chevron_right 6. Course release
chevron_right This ensures that training remains compliant, relevant, engaging, and aligned with the evolving risks and policies of each workplace.
chevron_right ONLINE LEARNING
chevron_right Synergy Education’s online theory learning has been created with the end user in mind. The functionality of the system ensures that all users, no matter their technological ability, are able to navigate and complete the training on a device of their choosing.
chevron_right Online theory is updated yearly to keep returning students engaged in the learning, with changes to industry-specific and unit changes amended as they are identified. The scrolling feature of the online theory, mixed with in-house videos filmed in various work environments, ensures that all learning is contextualised to learners' work environments. Staff are able to complete the online theory at their own pace with the Learning Portal, available 7 days a week, 24 hours a day.
chevron_right Synergy Education is committed to supporting learners and offers complimentary learner support within business hours.
chevron_right PRACTICAL SESSIONS
chevron_right Practical sessions are conducted on-site or in client offices to ensure training is directly relevant to the workplace environment and site, boosting engagement, retention, and real-world application.
chevron_right Practical sessions cater for up to 30 participants due to course design and resource allocation of 15 manikins per trainer. Whilst 30 participants may be present, trainers are only ever assessing 8 students at once during CPR due to Synergy Education’s unique curriculum design and dedication to ensuring quality assessment of each learner’s practical skills.
chevron_right CERTIFICATION MANAGEMENT AND INTEGRATION
chevron_right Synergy Education offers integration of first aid and CPR certificate records with clients' HR systems, eliminating the need for manual data entry and ensuring compliance for rostering. This integration enhances accuracy and validity of qualifications, reduces the risk of invalid certificates, and improves governance of certificate expiries. Synergy Education’s experienced technical staff collaborate to identify HR system requirements and conduct quarterly quality assurance reviews of imported certificate records for the first twelve months.
