Polytechnic West

I have had a bad experience with this Government funded institution. In February I booked into a Cert IV training and assessor course. The booking started positive via email though I had to call to confirm the details. All seemed OK till about a month out from the course dates. With no more contact to made me.
I had made arrangement’s with my employer to do this course, class room based running over two weeks at Bentley.
Some of my work mates had changed holiday dates and R/​Rs to assist me completing this course. I emailed the contact at Polytechnic West one month out from the course, no reply, left two phone messages, no return calls to me. Again one week out from the course I forwarded the 3 month long email trail, got a reply one day later to say she had been so busy ! Details of the course were sent to me no mention of payment to be made or invoice sent out. Then the following day I get another email to say the course had been postponed till August. I was in shock to say the least!
If a private business was conducted like this they would go broke in 3 months.
We the tax payers fund and keep these people employed !
I work for a world wide multi national company and have emailed all departments to be steer clear of Polytechnic West, after how they have handled what seemed to me was part of there core business. CUSTMER SERVICE.

Cameron Diaz attended a polytechnic High School and I always knew I would have much in common with the vivacious, life-​loving actress. Turns out I do. I have completed several courses at Polytechnic West. So it seems the word ‘polytechnic’ plus our awesome attitudes link us forever. I knew there would be a connection!
I love Polytechnic West primarily for its convenient and flexible learning style. A range of courses are offered here from short hobby style courses to part time and full time accredited courses.
I have found the short courses to be really helpful and worthwhile. I recently did a web design course here. It ran for eight weeks and was a reasonable price. If I recall correctly, it was a few hundred dollars and I got a discount because I had a concession card at the time.
There were no assessments or grading but I certainly learnt a lot and consider these types of courses a great way to up-​skill. Students can stop at the short course and learn a bit to get by or they can take further courses in the field.
I have found the teachers here extremely qualified and helpful and I reckon short courses are a great way to complement your skill set.
I have also been impressed with the breadth of knowledge the lecturers who take accredited courses are equipped with.
Polytechnic West is a great option for many people at different learning stages of their lives.
