-North East Community Support Group Inc.
I loved the instant chat feature on your website. Chris was a great help and gave us a prompt delivery of quotes and other information about the courses that pd training offer. Pd training was able to cater specifically to our needs and were flexible with the delivery style of our course. Overall, I am very impressed at the professionalism we encountered. We will definitely be considering pd training again for our future 'in house' training needs.
-Petronas
Best part of the day is that there was a lot of interactive presentations which made things "sink" in so much easier. Excellent course. Regards Andrea
-Alpha Flight Services
Key highlights: Establishing a daily routine, the four d's for dealing with in-trays, and office-space management. I also really appreciate pd training's flexibility in coming to our workplace to provide the in-house training at relatively short notice.

Facilitator was very engaging and everyone participating. Always with a smile.
-Housing Choices Australia
Siobhan was a fantastic/engaging speaker. I was a bit skeptical when I found out that the training was for a whole day.... I thought " what is she going to tell me for one full day.... it will be a waste of my day..." But 4.30 came and I was still hanging for more information.
-University of Melbourne
The presentation and facilitator were brilliant - best training experience I've had in a while. I've already implemented some of the ideas (which is a surprise to me!). Thank you.
-Electrical Safety Office - Electrical Licensing
Best Metcash course I've EVER done in my 10 years with the company - should have made time to do it many years ago. The trainer was fantastic - knowledgeable, enthusiastic, professional & light-hearted - the time flew (which it rarely does in training sessions). The course was well-paced, topical & very applicable to the workplace & private time alike. I will make time to actually read the manual cover to cover. Thank you!
-Metcash
I enjoyed the course, and I feel confident that I will be able to use what I learnt to improve things both at work and in my private life.
-FISHER & PAYKEL
Jack was a positive & friendly presenter. We plan to use Jack again.

The training is very useful for me as it helps me to identify the loop whole and to prioritise the tasks more effectively; I am definitely recommend to my other colleagues.
-Institute of Family Practice
Overall the session that I had with Sally, was most helpful. She was in sync with what I was wanting to get out of the meeting, and am absolutely sure that I will be in a much happier situation work wise.
-Royal Australian Mint
Adrienne presented the most relevant topics to me as she spoke to me prior to the training. She provided me with a number of strategies to implement. I particularly liked the Productivity Journal, and set up of Working/Reference/Archive files.
-SA Police
A big thank you to Kirsty for the training! I really enjoyed it and have learned some new skills I'm starting to put into practice, already making me feel less stressed and more able to effectively control my time. My desk is even starting to look neater already! Kirsty was also fantastic at handling the group and bringing the focus back to the work at hand in a very polite way when it came to people talking/getting off track - it was actually a non-intentionally provided skill simply because she was practicing it! She was also very professional and friendly with each of the different personalities in the class, giving every one the same attention and chance to be a part of the activities. A great day, a great set of skills and great people. Thank you. Jess.
-LivingWell Media Pty Ltd
Kristy is a Gold trainer! Excellent way to communicate, very effective! Training was well structured and important points were conveyed over and over and it sunk well.

Overall, the trainer is excellent. The venue is conducive to learning and the materials are sufficient for the topics covered.
-Cambridge International College
Learned so much which motivates me to keep more organized and to have well managed time. The speaker shared a very encouraging style which I can apply to my work and personal life. Nice venue and the food was great!

I was a skeptic going into this course but was pleasantly surprised. Susie our trainer was very engaging and enthusiastic. I believe that having a smaller group worked well for the course as the material became more tailored to my needs/requirements.
-RCL Cruises Ltd
Most useful - challenging us to question why we need time management. Real empathy shown to people's issues and problems at their workplace.
-RMIT UNIVERSITY

I would recommend this course to other people. thanks!
-Nacap Australia
Various tools and processes in the day certainly helped me clarify "big issue" decisions and goals for myself. Such clarity has the potential to make a huge positive difference to the next twenty years of my life, so that's no small outcome.
-CRCC
Fantastic course, teacher was very interactive and knowledgeable, did not lose interest. Great techniques.
-Applied Medical
Enjoyed more I think because it was a small group.
-Orchard Marketing
Michael was a great facilitator in adapting the course to what we wanted/needed out of it. He was genuinely interested in why we were there, and structured the course to give us the maximum benefit.Thank you.
-Engineering Education Australia Pty Ltd
It was very good. In fact one of the best comments made by the trainer related to my personality type (being quite visual)and the importance for me in keeping my work environment clear of clutter and distractions. I have put this into practise not only at work but in my car and at home and have noticed improvements in the management of my work.
-Hillscorp Pty Ltd
Excellent course. I have come away feeling extremely motivated, as well as more knowledgeable. Great trainer. Gail's energy was infectious. She was very personable and experienced on the subject matter as well as being amenable to dealing with our individual concerns. Overall an extremely invaluable and enjoyable day.
-Brisbane North Institute of TAFE
Our trainer incorporated our workplace within the training to show us how effective these changes would be.
-CSL Biotherapies
Derrick was a great trainer and I learned a lot from the training course. It really helped me confirm areas of improvement to become an effective trainer. The course also gave me confidence to back myself more as areas of what I do well to keep doing them. Thank you for a great course.
-Supercorp Pty Ltd
All the team at PD Training were very friendly and helpful.
-Catercare Services
Undertaking this training session has been giving me the opportunity to advance my skills in preparation and planning areas, how to run the training session or to train more effectively. The information, the resources, the life experiences that the trainer has provided has exceeded my expectations. The topics, the discussions, activities and abet of games and the feedback are very helpful throughout. Because its a small group, which is preferable, I got more chances to ask questions to help me understand fully and supportive. Other two participants are also supportive, which I am comfortable to work with, I also leant a lot from their life experiences. At the end of the session, I am able to step out of my comfort zone, growth in my confidentiality and how to structure/plan a training session, its an absolute relevant and beneficial knowledge that I will use/assist for my workplace in future.
-Honda MPE
Steve was fabulous, he had credibility and was motivated. He listened as well as spoke and allowed us to explore training in a approach that made sense, and allowed us to want to know more. Top trainer!
-Brad Teal Real Estate
Thoroughly enjoyed the course and found it easy to apply when back in the workplace.
-CSR
I found this course great in that I had it gave me a guideline and factors to consider when training people that I was not aware of. It also provided me with things that I should take into consideration when training others. This course has greatly benefited my future training methods. Anne was great.
-Armstrong Legal
Very informative. Highly beneficial.
-Siemens
The presenter was excellent. Her attention to each participants' aims of the workshop were attended to very well. She directed the training to specific modules which were helpful to particular participants and skimmed over modules that were not as applicable to us. I appreciated her style of teaching and presenting and would recommend her as a trainer to other people.
-Salvation Army
I really enjoyed the course and how we all were able to put in place everyone's needs for time management. It was a great day.
-Comvita
Troy was great and we had a really good group. I can't wait to put things into practice.

Foreword:
Do you feel that there is too much to do, yet you have very little time? Have you ever wished that you had more hours in a day? This Time Management training course from PD Training in Singapore can help you overcome these challenges. This course teaches you how to set priorities and manage your time wisely.
Managing time well enables you to be in control of your life and allows you to act on situations rather than react to situations. When reacting to situations, you are ill-prepared and under stress, so your action is unplanned and probably time consuming. Whereas, when you act on situations, it is well planned and thus allows you to function at your highest capacity. Many people spend their days in a frenzy of activity, but actually achieve very little because they are not concentrating on the right things in the right order.
According to the Pareto Principle, or the ‘80:20 Rule’, typically 80% of unfocused effort generates only 20% of results. The remaining 80% of results are achieved with only 20% of focused effort.
This Time Management Training course is about doing the right things better.

In-House Training - We’ll focus on what matters most to you and tailor to your context
Face-to-Face, Live Online, or Hybrid Class Tailored to Your Needs
When you want a tailored learning experience targeting exactly what you want without bringing everyone
physically together, the best choice is a Live Online Class run by PDT.
We tailor the content and activities to be specific to your current needs and
the needs of the people and run the course in our usual activity-based
workshop style training, however, the participants can all be offsite, or some
can be in the room with others offsite.
Unless you have a preferred tools we use 'Zoom for Education' that
includes enhanced collaboration features such as One-click content
sharing, real-time co-annotation (people can work together in activity files),
and digital whiteboarding, we also include things like live polls and group
chats so you virtually have the same collaborative learning experience of
attending a course in a room with other people.
We have delivered these 100's (if not 1000's) of times, and get great outcomes. We achieve great outcomes
because we keep our learner centric approach - just because it’s delivered through a screen to some or all
participants doesn’t mean it needs to be less tailored or less personalised.
You still have an expert trainer who talks to you prior to the session and tailors the delivery to use your
terminology, ensure activities are relevant and directly applicable and ensures an engaging learning
experience that provide people with skills and techniques they can apply the very next day.
A hybrid class is with some people connecting online, and some people physically together in the same room.
