The World’s Changing—Are You Ready to Lead It?

We know there’s a lot of information to take in — and that’s intentional. We want to make sure you have all the details and facts you need to make a truly informed decision for your child.

The world your teenager is stepping into is nothing like the one we knew.

They’re juggling school, part-time jobs, sport, family, and friends — and still expected to plan a future in an unpredictable world.

Our Virtual Campus Diploma of Business gives them the flexibility to do it all: live, interactive after-school sessions they can attend from anywhere, with a trainer who knows their name, their goals, and their potential.

This isn’t just about earning a certificate — it’s about building resilience, confidence, and the skills to navigate whatever comes next.

I cannot praise him enough for all they have sown into these young people’s futures. Thank you!

NEXT STEPS

  • Submit the Expression of Interest form below to add your child to the waitlist for our Diploma of Business program.

    This lets us begin the pre-enrolment process and allocate resources accordingly.

  • Once we receive your EOI, we’ll invite you to pay the $280 enrolment fee. A payment link will be forwarded to you.

    The $280 fee covers:

    • Enrolment processing and administrative support

    • Language, Literacy & Numeracy (LLN) test administration
      (Note: the LLN test cost of $10.50 is not included)

    • Digital literacy assessment (included)

    • Enrolment suitability verification

    This fee confirms your pre-enrolment and allows us to begin assessing your eligibility.
    Please note: This fee is non-refundable, including if your offer is declined or eligibility requirements are not met.


    Note: If, for any reason, the college determines the program is not suitable for your child, we will refund the enrolment fee within 7 days.

  • The student will complete a Language, Literacy, Numeracy and Digital Literacy (LLND) test to help us understand how we can best support them. This is conducted online by an external organisation, takes 45–60 minutes, and costs $10.50, payable directly by the student. We will arrange with the school to set up a time to complete the test or via Zoom (supervised)


    Please note: results are private and can only be accessed by the student.

  • Once your LLND results are processed (usually within 24 hours) and all other eligibility steps have been confirmed, we’ll send you the formal enrolment formtraining contract, and direct debit agreement. Payments are securely processed via Square or bank transfer — we do not collect or store credit card information.

    The contract outlines all terms and conditions so you can make a fully informed commitment.

  • After we receive the signed contract, your child will be officially enrolled.
    We’ll then:

    • Issue an Enrolment Letter

    • Notify your child’s school

    • Report data to the Department of Education and QCAA

    • Share the training calendar

    • Invite your child to their onboarding session

    The entire enrolment process usually takes 2–3 business days once payment is received.

Diploma of Business

Grateful to CEO and mentor Ricky for encouraging Caden and investing his wealth of knowledge, excellence and expertise that equipped Caden for life and inspired him to start his own business.

He started a business degree at Uni with credits, reducing the number of units needed to complete his degree because of his diplomas.

We have loved watching Caden grow in confidence, leadership and purpose.

Before I did this with Ricky, I had no desire to finish anything and no realisation of consequence. I never finished anything completely and I didn’t find anything wrong with that, as a result you can imagine I didn’t end up doing very much with my life. I couldn’t even finish a speech I was supposed to recite at my grandfather’s funeral. Now though, every task that comes my way is completed fully. My life has literally become more organised and fulfilling, ever since I met Ricky and his passion for learning. His passion is almost, if I can say this, contagious .

On the 22nd of the month I woke up and burst into tears as I hit $10k for the month, I was just so proud of what I had achieved and the feeling got to me thinking this just the start. The end of the month rolled around where I had achieved $12,204 in sales. I am still shocked to this day
