Training Is About More Than Just Showing Up
Enrolling in a course is a big step – and whether you’re returning to study after a long break, balancing work and family, or exploring a new career path, we want you to know that you’re not alone. At Asset College, we’re committed to helping every student succeed, not just by delivering high-quality training, but by supporting your wellbeing, confidence, and resilience along the way.
But success isn’t just about what we do – it also depends on you.
This article introduces our Wellbeing and Success in Training series: a practical, honest and encouraging set of resources designed to help you thrive in your course. Whether you’re studying online or in person, full-time or casually, these articles are here to guide and empower you.
Why We Created This Series
Over the years, we’ve supported thousands of students. Some excelled straight away. Others faced challenges – time pressures, nerves, self-doubt, health issues, motivation struggles, or unexpected life changes.
We know that:
We know that:
- Training can feel overwhelming, especially for adult learners
- Everyone learns differently and at their own pace
- Confidence and mindset are just as important as academic skills
- Small setbacks don’t have to stop you from reaching your goals
This series brings together practical advice and realistic encouragement – not just to help you pass a course, but to help you get the most out of it.
Our Role: Supportive, Professional, Respectful
Asset College will support you to:
- Understand what’s expected in your course
- Stay on track and manage your time
- Ask for help when you need it
- Receive feedback constructively
- Build confidence in your own ability
Our trainers and support team are here to guide you, answer your questions, and provide reasonable support if challenges arise.
But there’s one thing we can’t do: make you learn.

Your Role: Ownership, Effort, and a Willingness to Try
Adult learning is a two-way street. We’ll walk beside you – but you need to take the steps. That means:
- Taking responsibility for your time, effort and engagement
- Communicating if you’re struggling
- Staying open to feedback and improvement
- Managing competing priorities where possible
- Believing that you are capable of learning something new
The more you put in, the more you’ll get out – and no trainer, coach or support service can replace the effort that only you can make.
We’re not saying you have to be perfect. Just willing.
