Great advice. Really practical

Sarah Norton

 
The Get Handy workshop was just the connector I needed. Being the foundation course it covered all the super helpful basics I’d never learnt. In a matter of days since the workshop, I’ve completed a bunch of tasks I’ve spent time & money on making mistakes in the past. I have a confidence that now has me start & finish versus avoid &/or pay someone else. I’m super keen to do the next level workshop!

Kristie White

I got so much out of the beginners class, learnt so much about drills and how to measure up a project. Can’t wait to learn and do more!

Hi everyone! I’m thrilled to be here and introduce you to our new online training academy. This platform allows me to share my skills and knowledge in a way I’ve never done before. It has been in the making for many years, and I’m so proud that it’s finally happening.
