    "I had a fantastic experience completing the Master Ayurveda Qualification Program at the Australian College of Aromatherapy. The program was fun, well-rounded, and thoughtfully designed, making it easy to integrate alongside work and other commitments. One of the standout aspects for me was the incredible support from the college. The team was always approachable, encouraging, and genuinely invested in each student's success. This made learning even more enjoyable and rewarding. Thank you for providing such a wonderful learning journey. Wishing you continued success and all the best!"

    "During my studies, I struggled to manage my time due to work commitments. However, the support I received was invaluable in helping me complete the Aromatherapy Practitioner Certificate course. Michelle was incredibly approachable and knowledgeable, always ready to answer my questions throughout the course. Tracy provided thorough feedback on my assessments, offering detailed comments and guidance that I could refer to. I highly recommend ACOA to anyone interested in aromatherapy—whether as a hobby or a professional pursuit. Thank you so much!"

    "I did Aromatherapy practitioner certificate and i really had a wonderful experience. Before this i had completed aromatherapy for rejuvenating skincare. Love how helpful and available they are for any query you might have. I really want to mention Michelle Daffy here, she is an amazing and beautiful person. You can clear any of your doubts with her which she makes you understand thoroughly. She is very helpful and encouraging person. The courses are so good , in-depth, easy to understand and interesting that every-time you finish one feels like enrolling in the next one. My favourite part was the practical assignments which made the subjects even more interesting."

    "This was a really enjoyable module.  Lots of very useful and informative material.  The Vitamin and Mineral Reference Guide is an invaluable resource, and the assignment made good use of the Guide in educating the student what is in it!   As usual a thoroughly educating module."

    "I am currently studying over the last 2 years, (Motherhood has delayed me a little)🙂a Diploma in Aromatherapy through the college. I have found the college the best training organisation to deal with. I studied last year for my job with a different organisation and had so much trouble when it came to assessments being signed off, on subjects that were simple but were made to be rocket science!!! That is just one example, I have many others! I can safely say that ACOA is nothing like that, assessments are marked without dramas. When I have called to ask questions I have been answered and given other ideas as well. Thank you for your communication, course content and assessment questions being well defined, to know what is wanted without “grey areas”. I highly recommend studying through the college."

    "The range of topics covered within this subject are more diverse that I expected, which is wonderful. Caring for both mother and baby is not just limited to providing quality aromatherapy products and advice, but being able to support and provide care on many different levels at the many different stages of a new life coming into the world. I really hope that I can work within this particular field of aromatherapy as it has excited and motivated me to pursue this area of study. Wonderful course content throughout, thank you!"

    "This is my first assignment and I wanted to check I understood exactly what was required of me.  I phoned and spoke to the Student Liaison (Officer, Michelle Daffy. – can remove ))  She was brilliant.  Put me at ease. Seemed I was on the right track and spoke to me as though she had known me for years.  Told me to contact her anytime I wanted clarification on anything.  Brilliant service.  I’ve studied online before but this is the best.  I’m sure it’s going to continue.  Thank You."

    "I have thoroughly enjoyed doing the Fundamentals of Aromatherapy. It has been just what I needed as I complete the final stages of Cert IV in Massage Therapy. I feel like I have a solid base and will be able to offer Aromatherapy massage within my business endeavours – I didn’t want to offer this with a minimal understanding of essential oils. So, thank you very much!   I will keep the College in mind should I feel inspired to go further in depth with Aromatherapy.   Thanks again, I have thoroughly enjoyed the Fundamentals of Aromatherapy course!"

    "This is my first module and first assessment so far I find the questions very well done to ensure the student not only reads but has learnt new information. I try to treat education as a journey, and so far it has felt just like that, a journey of wonderful amazing knowledge and information. I am excited for what more there is to come, best decision of my life."

    "The section on performance and development planning was highly instructive, offering clear insights into setting realistic goals and effective development strategies. The use of a practical case study enhanced understanding, though more examples of handling common challenges in performance reviews would be beneficial for comprehensive learning."
