Australia’s trusted corporate training partner for 30+ years

Since 1992, CTO has been helping Australian organisations unlock the full potential of their people. Ever since, we have never lost sight of why we started. We believe training should do more than fill a day. It should change how people show up at work – more capable, more confident, more efficient, and more connected to the people around them.

We believe our expertise is not the sole growth driver for us; our people are what really make us different. Our trainers are industry specialists who genuinely care about the outcomes of every session. They pre-read your context, adapt in the room, and measure success by what participants can actually do afterwards, not by how much content was covered.

We are proudly Australian-owned and operated, with a team that brings warmth, professionalism, and real-world experience to every engagement. From our head office in the Gold Coast, we work with organisations across every state and territory, increasingly with international offices of Australian-owned businesses.

At CTO, we don’t just train teams. We invest in people. We take our passion seriously.

Two core areas – one trusted partner

At CTO, we ensure your team leaves with real skills, practical confidence, and the ability to perform better in their roles from day one. Our corporate training programs cover the two disciplines that drive real workplace performance – technology capability and people skills. Together, they provide your organisation with a comprehensive approach to workforce development.

Frequently asked questions

What types of corporate training does CTO offer?

CTO offers two primary streams of corporate training in Australia: Microsoft 365 technology training and Professional Development. Technology programs cover every application in the Microsoft 365 suite, including Excel, Teams, SharePoint, Power BI, Copilot and more. Professional Development programs include Leadership & Management, Personal Development, Customer Service, Planning & Organisation, Sales. All programs can be fully customised. While we offer structured courseware as a foundation, every program is adapted to meet your organisation’s specific requirements. Whether you need a one-day targeted workshop or a multi-month capability-building program, CTO designs the solution around your specific needs. 

How is CTO different from other corporate training companies in Australia?

The key difference is customisation and outcome focus. Many corporate training companies in Australia deliver the same content to every client, regardless of industry, role or skill level. CTO starts every engagement by understanding your team’s actual needs – the tools they use, the challenges they face and the outcomes your business wants to achieve. Training is then designed around those specifics. CTO brings over 30 years of training experience, with specialist trainers delivering both technology training and people development programs nationwide, onsite or online. The goal is always capability change, not content delivery.

Can corporate training programs be delivered onsite at our location?

Yes. CTO delivers onsite corporate training across every state and territory in Australia, including regional locations. All workshops are conducted at your workplace, using your actual systems and tools where relevant. This is particularly effective for Microsoft 365 training, where working in your organisation’s actual environment produces faster adoption and more relevant practice scenarios. On-site delivery also allows the facilitator to observe how your team works in context, making adjustments to the content in real time. For organisations that prefer remote delivery, all programs are also available as live, instructor-led online training.

How long do corporate training programs typically run?

Program length at CTO is determined entirely by your team’s needs, not by a fixed course catalogue. A targeted skill-building session might run for half a day or a full day. A broader onboarding program for a new system like Microsoft 365 might span several weeks of structured workshops. During the initial consultation, CTO will recommend the most appropriate length and structure based on what your organisation is trying to achieve and how your team learns best.

Do you offer employee training programs for large organisations?

Yes. CTO regularly designs and delivers employee training programs for large organisations, including ASX-listed companies, government agencies, universities, and national enterprises. For large-scale deployments, such as a Microsoft 365 rollout across multiple departments, or a leadership development program for a management cohort – CTO builds a structured program with consistent delivery across all teams. This includes needs analysis, customised content, trainer matching, scheduling coordination, and post-training support materials. CTO has the national trainer network and program design experience to manage complex, multi-site training requirements efficiently.

Which Microsoft 365 apps do you cover?

All of them – Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Outlook, Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, OneNote, Planner, Power BI, Power Apps, Power Automate, and Microsoft Copilot. Beginner through to advanced levels.

Do you service regional areas or only capital cities?

We cover all of Australia. Our trainers travel to regional offices, and online delivery means we can reach any team, anywhere – including international offices.

What industries does CTO work with?

CTO delivers workplace training across a wide range of Australian industries, including government, healthcare, education, financial services, resources and mining, construction, retail, professional services, and not-for-profit. The training approach is always customised to the industry context – examples, scenarios, and tools used in sessions reflect the actual environment your team works in. This industry-contextual approach is one of the reasons CTO’s training consistently produces stronger adoption and application than generic programs. Named clients include BHP, University of Canberra, City of Gold Coast, Von Bibra Automotive, ep&t Global, Synergy Radiology, and many more.

How do I request a quote for corporate training?

The simplest way is to call CTO directly on 1300 667 660. A training specialist will discuss your requirements and provide practical advice without obligation. You can also submit a quote request online at cto.com.au/course-enquiry/, or use the Book Now link on any course page to request preferred training dates for your organisation. For custom programs, CTO will typically conduct a brief needs consultation before providing a formal proposal, ensuring the recommended program is genuinely aligned with what your organisation needs, rather than a pre-packaged offering.
