I was amazed at how accurate the results were and hope that it gives her the confidence in her abilities to really make her mark in the world.

Suzi, mother of year 12 student

The process for James and I was very enriching and helped to target in on James ability to focus and take on his academic challenges at present. James has learned what his specific skills are for this purpose and will now be able to SEE these skills in a more focused way to achieve the best results for himself academically and in life

David, father of year 9 student!

We can whole heartedly say that one of the best things Cullam did for himself last year was to sit the Natural Abilities Testing. The testing itself was a rather lengthy process, but well worth every minute of it. The detailed comprehensive feedback he received has helped him to clearly define his unique natural abilities over a spectrum of different categories. As Cullam’s parents, we know him well, yet we were staggered and excited by the accuracy of the results over a wide range of abilities. There are a lot of characteristics unique to Cullam that we as his parents have subconsciously acknowledged, but to have them so accurately confirmed through this battery of tests was astounding.
This testing does not only give you helpful information on your teenager’s strengths, but it also gives an in depth interpretation explaining how to apply this when identifying the best way they learn, why certain areas of study incorporate their natural strengths (and will therefore be easier and more enjoyable for them) and why certain career options and environments will most likely be a ‘better individual fit’ for them than others. We have used this information in recent discussions with Cullam around his subject choices and possible future study options. He has taken the information on board and is using it to help with his decision making. As parents we are so grateful to have had the benefit of him doing this testing and highly recommend it to everyone.

Whenever there is a decision to be made about direction – out comes the Natural Ability testing results to help guide/remind the girls of their core requirements. So big thanks to you guys!

Nan – mother two high school students

This is by far the most liberating experience of my life. The depth, knowledge and insight I have gained about myself is priceless. The report was spot on and I lost count of how many ‘ah ah’ moments I had. I highly recommend this test for anyone no matter the age – you are never too old to discover the ‘real’ you. The whole experience exceeded my expectations.

Kristy, adult in transition

A great process to go through! It highlighted traits that I hadn’t even addressed before. This has helped me to work around them and with them to minimise any negative effects they were having. I am considering a career change and the information I gained through this process has given me a lot more courage to do so.

Andre, 32 year old horticulturist

UP until recently, I felt that I was at a complete dead end in my life. I had a degree behind me; however I was unable to make any real progress in starting and developing a career which I could be truly excited about. My current job was the final straw. I needed to do something, anything, which would provide me with some information about myself that I could use to get back on track. The Natural Ability program has provided me with that information. I found the program revealed a number of things about my-self, some which I knew, and others which I had known at some earlier time and had for some reason ignored. Using this information, I have been able to understand why I have felt such dissatisfaction in my working life to date. I feel that I have discovered something important about myself and I am quite excited about it. All I need now is the courage to trust what I have inside me and pursue what I rightly deserve!

Clint, 29 year old electronics engineer

For the first time in my life I feel seen, really seen and understood and it is beautifully overwhelming.
FROM EVERY PART OF MY HEART I THANK YOU.

Nicole, 35 year old adult in transition

Thank you Rob for your wonderful support recently. As a result of my own direct experience with your services, I found the process extremely worthwhile. I genuinely felt that Natural Abilities embraces the individual as a whole and with complete mindfulness, to help and support people like myself, to mold and construct our lives through better work choices and relationships, congruent with personal values and goals. The Highlands Ability Battery, as a tool is excellent and provided me with a much deeper and unique insight into myself. Coupled with the insightful counseling and genuine guidance I received, I have been able to marry together the insights and inner learnings, with my practical world and find my unique place in it. Confident in my identity and talents, I am now able to consciously and deliberately espouse the best path for me.

Josie, 40 year old corporate trainer

I am still amazed at how accurately the test has identified my traits and abilities! Before doing the test I was so unsure about my career path and I had been thinking a lot about making serious changes. Having done the test and speaking to Tracy, I now see that I am on the right path and I feel confident and encouraged to keep doing what I am doing. I think this process has also helped me understand the way that others in my office work, and I think this will help me not to get too stressed out in certain situations as I can appreciate that everyone works and behaves very differently.
