Great job 👏🏻
Clontarf visited MAX Port Augusta depot on Monday afternoon. Great bunch of lads asking lots of questions.
The Clontarf Foundation exists to improve the education, discipline, self-esteem, life skills and employment prospects of young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander men and by doing so, equips them to participate more meaningfully in society. #clontarf #inclusion #Indigenous #education #southaustralia #upperspencergulf #regionaldevelopment #cranes #craneservice #cranehire

Thats more like the jobs I'd like
Ash Kaufmann get keen
Being the $60m Dollars winner of the 2022 lotto max is a great gain. I vowed to help people in need of financial support, Being blessed with $60m dollars really meant a lot to me and I feel like I don’t deserve it as I know the real struggle people go through in a bid to make ends meet. Therefore I voluntarily decided to donate and touch the lives of men and women who have found themselves in financial crisis, to individuals around the world according to how God leads me to do. I try to reach people randomly from different sources and modes so as to touch lives from different parts of the world. Now I’m giving you an opportunity to share your pain with me drop a message for me and I'll reply you. Respectfully: Vera page]

CICA Member Profile: Max Academy achieves landmark first - Cranes & Lifting
www.cranesandlifting.com.au
On a quest to see better training standards across the industry, Lou Sapio helped establish the Max Academy back in 2021.
Marcus Drummond commenced his apprenticeship in Certificate III in Heavy Commercial Trailer Technology within the MAX Academy. At the time, Marcus was one of 35 apprentices in SA. Marcus joined MAX with a number of short courses and experiences but did not have trade papers to show for it. Due to his work ethic, commitment to training and desire to learn, Marcus successfully completed his apprenticeship 12 months before the contract expiry date. Bryan Kingham, Depot Manager and Bronte Munzer, Operations Lead both from Port Augusta, are extremely proud to have Marcus in their team and to have a role model for new trainees and apprentices.
