Security Student Testimonial
Reaching the age of 65 was getting to be a downer employment wise.
I undertook security training with ASSET nearly three years ago and through that training got to work at both of the G20’s as a supervisor for Wilson Security in Cairns and Brisbane. After that, employment got scarce but through the endeavours of ASSET, I have just obtained casual employment with Northside Protective Services.
Must admit it was a bit of a surprise naturally being 65 and thought I had been chucked out to pasture. Through the efforts of ASSET, I am again moving forward and look forward to many more years of employment. Thanks to ASSET
