This terrible company has gone into liquidation! Back in 2024 I was wanting to just talk to someone about possibly doing a course and wanted more info. The staff must be trained in coercing and pushing people into signing up because I stupidly did over the phone. They barely give you enough time to think about it, let alone make you sign electronically over the phone while they are talking to you. Didn’t get a chance to read any of it. Also make out that they are going to give you a “discount” if you sign today. (It’s my own fault for not thinking smarter I know) But what makes it worse is this company must have known they were in trouble and could possibly close, but they kept signing people up anyway. 6 weeks into my course and weekly direct debits later, they are suddenly uncontactable. Had to find out on Reddit that they had gone into administration. They gladly kept taking the direct debit out each week though. I cancelled that with my bank. Now here we are nearly 2 years later, I’m getting emails and letters from debt collectors saying I owe Careerhouse the course fee and I need to pay $3800 in 7 days. Are they joking? I’m expected to pay that much money for a course I cannot learn or complete and a certificate I’ll never get? The absolute hide of these low lives. No morals whatsoever.

DO NOT GO THROUGH CAREER HOUSE. THEY ARE RIP OFFS & SCAMMERS. YOU WILL REGRET IT. COOLING OFF PERIOD IS A JOKE BY THEN IT'S TOO LATE .. YOU OWE THEM MONEY FOR AN INCOMPLETED, NOT AUSTRALIAN CREDITED AND A WASTE OF MONEY.
Truth I don't know how is it they are still allowed operate. Then to top it off they went through a credit agency for there $3k+ funds.... That I will never pay them and don't plan too.

Proceed with caution, overpriced, misleading unaccredited course's, extremely short "cooling off period" and made to pay in full if course is complete or not. Glorified scammers wish I had of read reviews before signing up

My daughter lives with disability. In late Nov 2021 she was sent a 12-page contract which she is not capable of understanding committing her to 6 years of payments for course fees . Of course she always pushes yes , so signed it by docusign. It doesn't say what course, when and to what outcome. There was no course . But now we are pursued by debt collectors and lawyers. Somehow passing dirty debt to these people suddenly makes it clean. You can imagine what this does to the mental health of a person with disability . Preying on the disabled must be the lowest form of corporate life.

bought a criminal psychology course and after 2 months the account was shut down and emails bounced I'm absolutely beside myself DO NOT GO THROUGH THIS COMPANY $1885 gone

SCAM!!!!

I was lucky in that I completed my certificate in 2022 & received my certificate.

I left Australia in 2023 & was in communication about paying off the rest of my course before I left the country. I received a “no you must continue with direct debits”

Since returning to NZ in Feb 2023 they contacted me Nov 2023 with an arrears email and tried multiple attempts to pay it / stay in communication to work out payments etc etc

My last email in Feb 2024 went unanswered. And have no heard from them since.

Yesterday I received an email from a Melbourne Debt Collection Agency demanding the rest of the payment. With the note that Career House have tried multiple attempts to contact me (no they haven’t as they knew my situation and knew email was best form of communication seeing as I left the country).

To have received this yesterday with a little over a week before Christmas one of the busiest times of the year is frustrating and upsetting. Especially when I tried my absolute best to work things out with them via email back in 2023 til early 2024 which then went unanswered.

Such a poor experience with admin. Super unprofessional and inconsiderate. I wouldn’t sign up nor recommend this company purely for that.

I had no idea this company was a scam. I paid a hefty price to do a few certificates and only received two of them. When I tried to contact them to get the others, the number is disconnected and the emails all bounce. How ridiculous. They aren’t accredited and I chose this one because it had the course I was really interested in, but in the end I never even got to do it.

I wish I looked at the reviews before I signed up with career house. Once I realised the course was not the right one for my accreditation I tried to cancel. It was past the cooling off period which was so small (3 days? 5 days?) Now I have to pay the whole course over 4k, and had paid a few mo ths worth already for nothing. Absolute scam and unethical.

Uncontactable and no support just take your money a total scam

No follow up, no support, not nationally recognised, am still having $$$ deducted 3 years after the fact, a total scam

Keep right away from these jokers. They never respond, their phone number isn’t connected. They’ll spell your name wrong on your certificate and then take their time to rectify it. Just avoid like the plague

I did a course back a few years i didn't put a review on here! But I should have!! scammers! these guys are! The courses courses have no accreditation, they ring me thousands of times to do more study when im already paying a huge debt to pay them off.
They don't have a proper phone number on the student pay website to call them, they are very pushy.. don't study with these guys, save your mental health guys!

i was very interested in their courses until i found out they are not worth the paper they are printed on. they wont help you get a job
