  5. Quote from Rosemary “Over 50% of our enrolments now come from contestable funding sources. These customers often want customised training that meets their own particular business needs. If Riverina Institute can’t provide the services they want,  then there is no shortage other public and private Registered Training Organisations that are more than willing to take that business away from us”
