Never met someone who hates their job…

Never met someone who hates their job so much. Extremely rude, unhelpful, hangs up on you, suggests you get your white card out of a cereal box, misleading website, and misleading questions, the pictures and examples given are barely relevant to to the questions asked. Takes months to get anywhere and when you finally get to the last part you are stuck with an unpleasant assessor (Frank) who is very rude and treats you like an idiot.
Save yourself the hassle and go to an actual same day white card course where the assessor’s cant be so rude face to face

Being a debt collector was easier

I thought being a debt collector was bad then I had to deal with this company. Have now formally requested a refund from my bank for their misconduct. They are known to the ACCC for misleading people with their crap make sure you do your research before trusting these sites. Better yet get it from tafe that is a sure way to get it within a day. Do not be fooled by their website.

EXPRESS ONLINE TRAINING (EOT) SCAM AND HIDDEN CHARGES. SLOW SERVICE

Calling themselves EXPRESS ONLINE TRAINING and being very slow in reality is just part of it. Ive started my Whitecard With them since January 2025 (2nd week) and today (Feb 25, 2025) I havent reach the end of the whitecard course because the assessment is very slow to get assessed from the assessor and they have 6 steps of assessment where you cannot proceed unless you finish one after another. Each assessment will surely take atleast 3 days before it gets assessed. And if you want to make your assessment faster, you'll need to pay for extra where they call it instant assessment service. Which is considered a hidden charges.

One of the worst White Card training…

One of the worst White Card training websites.
Don't use an online course. Do an in-person course and get it all done in one day, instead of being messed around by a website like this.

You start with the mostly easy multiple-choice questions. Around 90 of them, so you already spend quite some time on this task. When you are done, you are asked to pay. All good and well, because you just did the course, right? No! After you finished your first set of questions, you are then directed to more questions, this time a set of video recordings with weird questions that the seasonal white card holders in our family couldn't even answer properly because their answers got rejected. "Talk to your supervisor about the hazards that are in the above photo?" - There are no hazards, as everything is done by safety standards. So you want me to make some up? Seems like it. I am sure a real supervisor would love to talk about that kind of stuff on the job, when there is no imminent hazard around. But here comes the spammy part, they assess your work of course. On the website they state most video recordings are graded between 1 to 3 business days, but if you want it to go quicker, please pay more! Apparently, the 24/7 support is not actually a thing either as they advertise on their website, because it still takes a while to get an email reply asking for clarification. And now, we are still waiting to hear back again to see if our second recording is actually "right" this time.

Hi Rebecca,

We are sorry to hear you're disappointed with the service and availability of support. We advertise that our self-paced courses are available 24/7 and that support is available 7 days a week and until late.

In terms of identifying hazards, it is important to remember that a hazard that is not something that is being done incorrectly on site. It is something that has the potential to cause harm or risk if not managed correctly. If you need help with the assessment please reach out to our Support Team at info@eot.edu.au They can offer you other ways to complete the assessment or to speak to a trainer & discuss the assessment.

Assessment videos take 4+ days to review

I recently did my white card with that organization (still pending) and only had problems with them. The video skills assessment are the worst. It's easier and way faster to do it with a different company. At first you do all the online questions and after you complete them you get to the payment and think it's done. But then after you pay for it you have to do around 20 videos of answering questions and they hve to review and mark them as completed. On the website they officially say it takes them 1-3 business days to review the videos. In my case I had to resubmit some videos and it took them 4 days to review them the second time. Now I'm still waiting on the third review and it has been 4 business days. They probably just want people to pay more for their priority service👎🏼

Absolutely awful stay away

Absolutely awful stay away, I'm doing an RSA as a refresher, I've had the RSA 2 times before this from reputable sources no problems at all. This place take your money and just drag it on and on. It was supposed to be a few days, its been weeks. Their antiquated video assessment system is a failing joke. You can't even check if your recorded video is good before you submit, then you have to wait 3 or 4 days to find out.. then re-record.. This place is a sham.

I was unable to pass the course

I was unable to pass the course, as I was unable to display/ upload a video of me wearing workwear. Helmet, Hi-Viz clothing, boots.
Wasted money, this is a waste of money. Choose a one-day course in whatever state you are in.

This company misleads what they…

This company misleads what they actually offer. You will NOT be able to this course in one day, let alone in one week. They actually give you three months to complete the course - if that can give you an idea. You're requested to make videos of yourself, demonstrating the answers, plus, you're not paying for the course after you passed, you have to do "additional" stuff for which you will have to pay upfront.

Please don't use this company, they set you up for failure. The teachers have absolutely no interest in their students and money seems to be the driving force for this company.

Hi Herman,

We're sorry to hear you're disappointed with your experience.

There are external rules on what support can be provided and how attempt limits during the QLD White Card course which is explained during the class. We understand you may feel that the trainer was not helpful, but they must follow those rules & cannot provide certain help during assessments. If a learner does not pass, the trainer will always try to set them for success on their next attempt e.g. feedback and potentially waving any fees.

If you need further assistance with the course please reach out to our Support Team at eot.edu.au/support

No support

No support. Stupid photos that are not clear.
They take your money, don’t pass you and expect you to give them more money.
Very amateurish.
This is a rip off and a scam.
Don’t go there, there are better places with support and are guenuine accredited.

RSAT course is a scam

EOT advertises their RSAT course as paying 25AUD to get 2 certificates: the certificate of attendance (which is useless and has no legal value), and the official NSW certificate (the one you legally need). Instead, upon completing the online training, you only get the certificate of attendance and are simply provided with a link to the official NSW RSAT assessment, for which you need to pay the full 18AUD to get the final certificate.
Do not use EOT (total cost: 25+18=44 AUD), just use NSW RSAT course and assessment (total cost: 28AUD).
I wrote to the support service, they refused to reimburse the difference.

Hi,

We would like to clarify how the NSW RSAT course works.

The NSW Government allows approved training providers to deliver the NSW RSAT Training and recognises this training. Our certificate is evidence of having completed that required training section before learners can apply for the assessment externally. Only the NSW Government can deliver the final assessment portion to certify learners & we advise learners of this before they start or pay.

Marking took much longer than one day

Marking took much longer than one day for interview task. Don't buy from here, slow customer support and you must pay extra for better, faster service...go literally anywhere else to do your white card or RSA, especially if you don't want to wait a week or more to complete certification, even though other sites a little more expensive its worth it.

Keep out

Please stay away from this company.
Don't wast your time and money.
They take a long time to assess you and you have to email and call.
Not worth it.
Just try another one.
You might lose work waiting for the certificate with eot.

Beware before you buy

Beware before you buy. If you look around on the website, you'll notice that there is no phone number to call. You can google and try social media too - there is no way to contact them. At best, send a message via the 'raise a support ticket' and you get a reply saying that it takes one business day for them to respond. They provide the (white card WA) training online, you have to pay once this has been completed. But then there are assessments to upload, the video upload functionality is hit and miss, you have to repeat this several times. Then they take their time (over 3 business days) to check each assessment. The ACCC (Australian consumer protection) is taking them to court for false advertising. This is definitely not SAME DAY white card. It's been 10 days and we are still not sure whether a white card will be issued.

White card online..

White card online... 3 weeks later if your lucky...
They reel you in saying pay at the end.. after the first section of questions you have to pay.

Then each new section takes 3 days to review with
8 sections in total.

There is an option where you can pay to have it reviewed quicker.

If you can do it in person do it
if you need to do it online do it somewhere else

Very disappointed in this company

Very disappointed in this company. The assessors use condescending attitudes and rude unsavoury behaviour. They add further questions that were not included hence a recipe to fail or having to continue beyond budget. I went to another provider who were fantastic and I am a qualified trainer and teacher so I am very much alert to issues in education and training

Waste of time and money

Tried to submit assessments through both my mobile device and my laptop, and both times there were "technical issues". Then they wanted another $30 to extend my course! Very difficult to find any contact details too, with every email from them being a "do not reply". Would not recommend, at least for White Card.
