The following are a selection of businesses that ELES has worked with and can recommend or that have been strongly recommended by trusted individuals:

He also mentors teachers and runs Parent Information Evenings. Rocky also works with businesses to move them to to the next level with a unique program. Rocky also does counselling and uses hypnotherapy and E.F.T. to help clients overcome a number of life issues.

Nicholas Morris Website Design (formerly Overload Web Design)

http://www.nicholasmorris.com
If you like the design of this website or the ELES Study Skills Handbook, contact Nic as he does a great job, is very talented and easy to work with. He has done a number of projects for me and I have been thrilled with all of them - he has a real flair and great design skills. (Note: any errors or dodgy bits or strange looking formatting on this site are probably a result of my amateur 'fiddling' with the site since Nic finished it!)

Rising Generations

http://www.risinggenerations.org.au
Rising Generations Ltd is a not-for-profit organisation established to equip individuals with dynamic leadership capabilities. I haven't seen their work personally, but they have come highly recommended from a number of schools if you are looking for people to run leadership activities with your students. It is very interactive and the students really engage with the way leadership skills are developed.
