Testimonials

A really, really great workshop - it was the right combination of being challenging, informative and fun!

“Chemène is an excellent trainer with fantastic communication skills. She is friendly and professional and puts her learners at ease.”

Ann Brady, Director, Learning Lines

It was an honour to be in class with someone who is so connected, engaging and organised.

Chemène was very knowledgeable and engaging. Her ability to articulate concepts and key topics were amazing.

I think it’s high time that the college realised just how good she is and used her as a draw card.

Chemène is engaging and brilliant in ensuring that the learner not only has a positive learning experience but that she has ensured the learners’ learning outcomes have been met.

What an enjoyable, constructive course - sad that it has finished!!

“I have come to understand you will exceed your brief ... Fair and flexible works every time for us, you have clearly demonstrated you are. ”

Susan Veness, Director, Australian Training Solutions

What a wonderful and refreshing approach to facilitating a dry subject.

Chemène was a brilliant facilitator - very engaging and enthusiastic. I appreciated the real life examples and also ensuring the sessions were tailored individually.

Chemène was very engaging and I learned a lot just from observing the variety of her teaching techniques.

“…you are really the most wonderfully gifted trainer, mentor and motivator I have ever professionally and personally come across. My skills under your support and guidance have completely exploded and you really opened my eyes to how important it is to have someone like you to properly do the TAE – you show and role model the type of behaviour we as your learners can strive to emulate in a training room. ”

Michelle Price, WHS Manager, Concord Hospital

“In a sporting environment providers need to be adaptable, flexible and ready for the unexpected - I have been working with Chemène since 2001 and her ability in these areas is unmatched. She has dealt with the very young athlete through to the high profile, media savvy professional and has ALWAYS delivered a learning experience in a fun, yet professional, environment. I have never heard an athlete say they did not get anything out of her workshops and have often seen and heard interviews where her techniques have been utilised. I would highly recommend her to any organisation.”

Rosemary Towner, National Player Development Manager, Rugby Union Players’ Association (RUPA)

What a wealth of knowledge, an explosion of energy. It’s a pleasure to learn from such an enthusiastic trainer.

I can honestly say that Chemène is one of the most amazing, capable and pleasant trainers I have ever met. Her ability to motivate, connect with and engage her students whilst teaching is a skill that I have not seen in any trainer I have ever dealt with.

Chemène was incredibly helpful, always providing herself to our class for help and support, her knowledge is outstanding and [she] managed to keep us engaged.

“I have worked with Chemène on various projects over the last 10 years and every one of them has been successful, enlightening and rewarding. When I worked as an ASQA auditor I was always delighted and relieved to visit an RTO that was using Blackwater Projects materials or engaging Chemène as a trainer. I would breathe a sigh of relief, not only because I knew the materials were compliant but also because choosing to work with Chemène demonstrated a commitment to quality. I recommend Chemène and Blackwater Projects’ products to anyone seeking quality outcomes for their RTO. ”

Ruth Walker, CEO, Independent Assessment Validation Services

“Thanks for the media skills workshop you delivered to our national cycling team on your recent trip to Barbados. The athletes and coaches got a lot from the session.”
