"All
feed back from the workshops was very very positive.
The students have all participated in their mock interviews
since and
have
received rave reviews! The interviewers can't believe
how much the year 10 girls have improved since last
year, they were exceptional. Thank you, thank you!!!"

"Barwon
Youth has recently had the pleasure of having Tina Nikolovski
speak with our Youth Pathways Clients. The session was
very informative
and interactive with every student having an opportunity
to be involved. The feedback from both the students
and staff was
very positive. I would certainly recommend the Radiance
program to anyone. "

"Shell
works closely with Geelong schools to help encourage
young people to gain employment or a qualification,
which is important
for
the sustainability of Shell's future in Geelong. Radiance
shares similar values to Shell in its aspiration to
assist young people in our local
community through employment, skill-building and self-esteem.
The Radiance school workshops
are highly regarded and seen as a valuable learning
experience for young people as they embark on their
career paths.
We
support Radiance's initiative to develop a local program
in Geelong for secondary school students and would be
happy to discuss
this further with you if required."

"On
review of the evaluation forms, completed by all attendees
of the program, students reported very positively on
the program.
The
common theme throughout the evaluation responses was
that students particularly enjoyed the 'hands on' experiences
on the
day
and the very positive and sharing approach of the presenter.
Students also noted that they felt comfortable discussing
personal presentation
issues and related well to the self esteem program.
Thank you again for an excellent day."

"We
thought the workshops were very successful and worthwhile
experience which gave students an opportunity to gain
advice
and
experience in areas that many miss out on, particularly
in the areas of interview preparation and make-up application
(both
very
popular sessions). Students from Glenmore high School
participated in the workshops as part of their set planning
process and
their
Certificate I in Work Education, students from Girls
Grammar, CQ Christian College and Rockhampton High School
attended the workshops
to gain skills and knowledge with regards to what is
expected of them in real interview situations. A great
deal was learnt
by
all, particularly in the areas of interview techniques
and presentation expectations when going for interviews
Overall it was a very productive
day which the kids enjoyed immensely! We have had nothing
but positive feedback from both students and teachers
and look
forward to running the program again next year "

"I
learnt so much even though I am a teacher. The students
were active participants in the workshops and became
listeners and
team
members. Obviously relevant for young people who are
beginning their workforce journey"

"
The workshops Radiance presents are to the point and
the material covered was highly relevant, presented
in today's language.
We
had a great facilitator, and with a large group of 60
students she kept them engaged and interested for the
full duration of both workshops.
I would certainly recommend the Radiance Work Readiness
program to other schools. "

"Radiance
presented a full day program to 50 year 11 students
in a manner that kept the group engaged and involved
and left
them
with many useful ideas and skills plus a booklet to
take away. The students certainly left happily, chatting
about how good the program
was"

Tina is passionate about seeing young people reach their
potential and striving to achieve. The Radiance program
was engaging
to
the max! Seeing our students jump out of their chairs
to do an activity was fantastic. Tina used her extensive
on-the-job knowledge
to
engage/inform and awaken our students.

"Sacred
Heart College had the pleasure of having Tina Nikolovski
speak to our Year 10 and 11 girls in 2007 as part of
our Careers
Week
program. Her motivational presentation struck a chord
with our students in terms of providing a contemporary
role model
and
in having them reflect on their personal challenges
ahead. Tina spoke from the heart, using personal, professional
and family
based
experiences to highlight the key issues that are important
to all young people.
Tina
went on to assist the Year 10 girls in their preparation
for Work Experience via a series of 'hands on' workshops
that really
engaged
and motivated our students. Feedback from parents via
work experience report forms was very good and there
were
very
few complaints from employers about appearance. Students
felt that the Radiance session helped them to focus
on what
to
wear and what was appropriate for the workplace"

"Tina
was invited to conduct a Communication Program with
20 Alcoa Future Leaders of Industry, Scholarships in
Manufacturing students.
Tina's workshops were well accepted and had full student
participation. There were clear messages and positive
reinforcement
throughout the program, and the students had nothing
but praise for the workshops at the end of the day"

"The
radiance sessions focused on preparing for the interview
were informative, interactive and well suited to our
students.
The
group learnt some valuable tips regarding the importance
of personal presentation. The students now have a much
greater
chance
to impress in this area and have crossed some outfits
and hairstyles off their list. I was impressed with
Tina's manner with
the
class and her extensive knowledge and skills, in the
area was obvious. I would recommend this program to
other people
aspiring
to give themselves the best opportunity to Get That
Job".

"The
Radiance workshop with Tina was excellent. The program
was designed to give our year tens a real look at what
is expected of them
during interviews for work. This included personal presentation,
interviewing skills and even tips on their personal
emails and voicemail
messages. The students learned many important lessons
which will help them achieve their goals for work placements."
