Training
Our Warehousing Operations qualifications are designed to give your warehouse staff all the skills they need to fulfil the tasks assigned to them, while capitalising on your way of doing business. Units involve training in housekeeping, picking and packing, safely handling loads, product knowledge, estimating weight and dimensions, dispatching/receiving goods, and cargo and lean processes.
The program allows us to work across all aspects of your operation while being specific enough to customise for individual roles in receiving, dispatching, picking/packing and stock control. Your business may choose to involve teams from all areas by injecting role-specific modules into the program. Our Holistic Approach is based on the understanding of the need to engage with employees, whilst minimising the disruption to usual business activities.

Business
The Business Training Package has undergone a full review, with many previously separate qualifications being joined with the general Business qualification as a specialisation e.g. Certificate III in Business (Administration) rather than the separate Certificate III in Business Administration.
The outcome is consistent core business skills across the level, with opportunity lean towards a field or take a generalist approach.

Leadership & Management
Leadership & Management qualifications reflect the role of individuals working as developing and emerging leaders and managers in a range of enterprise and industry contexts. As well as assuming responsibility for their own performance, individuals at this level provide leadership, guidance and support to others. They also have some responsibility for organising and monitoring the output of their team. Trainees will learn to apply solutions to a defined range of predictable and unpredictable problems, and analyse and evaluate information from a variety of sources.
Qualifications
Retail
Retail qualifications give employees the skills necessary to effectively serve your customers, including the promotion of products, giving advice, and handling complaints and returns.
Higher-level Retail qualifications prepare employees for management roles in stores or area management for franchises, and include skills such as budgeting, recognising marketing opportunities and recruiting staff.
Please note, training and assessment for SIR30216 Certificate III in Retail may be provided by Berengarra on behalf of Flexible Training Solutions.
Qualifications
Customer Engagement
Customer Engagement courses have been rolled into the general Business qualifications as a Specialisation. These now appear as Certificate III in Business (Customer Engagement), and Certificate IV in Business (Operations).
