    It's just like a private RTO, only more toxic!
    The good thingsSome educated professionals to work with. However, executive are very keen to re-classify the teachers as "trainers". It's a very soul-crushing environment: in the past teachers were respected...
    The challengesExecutive & Directors vs the staff. A formerly cohesive place to work has turned quite toxic.
