Happy Clients:



The result is a more productive team, happier customers, and better training opportunities for your employees. Everyone wins!
The #1 obstacle most hardworking food service business owners and franchisees face today is staff and employee problems. Having a good business or franchise system is not enough anymore. You need to surround yourself with good people who share your values, beliefs and passions. That’s exactly what Positive Training helps you achieve, by showing you how to get more done through your people faster, with less effort and no resistance.
Positive Training is a Registered Training Organisation (RTO) that delivers cashflow-positive ‘Nationally Recognised’ retail traineeships and assessment programs to food retail businesses, Australia-wide.
We deliver accelerated, all-inclusive, no-nonsense government-sponsored traineeships, guaranteed to help you improve quality, eliminate staff problems, reduce waste and boost your bottom-line profits.
We Will Put $20,000 In Your Pocket.
By training your staff through us you will get a cash-bonus of $4,000 per employee from the Government. That’s $20,000 for a group of five. Because you get the cash bonus only when your staff actually complete their traineeship, you want to deal with an RTO with a high training completion rate. Ours is a stunning 62% higher than the industry average - that means when you use Positive Training for your training, you’ll get up to 62% more Government incentives!
'No Funding, No Fee' Guarantee.
We guarantee to take your food retail business to the next level in outstanding customer service, without you being out-of-pocket. We will not charge you a cent until you are entitled to receive your Government funding. Instead of focusing on enrolment numbers, we focus on training completion rates. We do this because if your staff don’t complete the training, you won’t get paid. And if you don’t get paid, we don’t get paid! So, we’re on the same team, working for the same results.
Dealing With Us Is Simple And Hassle-Free
We will assign a Client Management Officer to you to enable our legendary ‘One-call Problem Resolution'. We'll also keep you updated with full status monthly reporst, so you know exactly the progress your employees are making throughout the training course (traineeship). Also, because we have implemented this program in over 250 quick serve retail businesses, we know exactly what to do to give you maximum results while minimising scheduling concerns and other possible distractions.
We Take Care Of All The Paperwork
While most of our non-specialist competitors force you to complete the considerable amount of paperwork involved, we don’t. We lodge the Government claim forms for you so you can remain focused on your business without any unnecessary distractions or administrative burdens.
We Run A Successful Business
We have delivered face-to-face, market leading, award-winning customer service strategies to over 2000 staff in Food Retail businesses via a "cost-positive" government funded program. Positive Training has expanded from one key client to over 250 clients in 5 short years, securing those clients a colossal $10 million dollars in Government Training Incentives. We have the lowest staff turnover compared to other Registered Training Organisations. On top of that, we are fully compliant with the Australian Quality Training Framework (AQTF 2007).
We've Been On Your Side Of The Counter
James Grima, founder and Managing Director of Positive Training, is an evangelist for outstanding service. He has 20 years of hands-on multi-unit food retailing experience. He not only understands the deceptively complex franchising system, but also understands your daily challenges, problems and frustrations as a business owner in the food retail industry. It’s tough out there! You need someone who’s 'been there, done that' on your team. James imparts his substantial expertise to his team so you get his wealth of experience included in every traineeship Positive Training delivers.
We ONLY Focus On Food Retail Businesses
Our trainers understand your type of business inside out because that’s all we do - we train Food Retail staff. We have narrowed our focus to provide your employees with the most relevant and cutting-edge training, and to ensure you get to see results quicker. Because all our trainers possess hands-on food retail experience, our training courses run for less than 7 months instead of 18 months as some of our competitors' courses do. Our trainers have either owned or managed food retail businesses themselves, giving them in-depth knowledge of this highly competitive industry. The last thing you want is an ex-banker trying to teach your staff about customer service!
Having a strong team is just critical not to the survival
of your business
– it is the key to profitability.

The only decision you face is picking the right Registered Training Organisation to ensure your staff are trained properly and professionally. We have trained over 2000 food service retail employees – we know what we’re doing. And we’ve given you 7 reasons why you should give us a call right now on 1300 767 484.
Don’t put this off to later, give us a call right now and we’ll take care of all the details for you – literally. It’s going to be that quick and easy!
