About Us

Gabrielle Hartin founded APCOT when she saw an opportunity and a gap in the market for a high quality, specialist Registered Training Organisation. This need has seen APCOT use it's international experience to dedicate itself and focus solely on developing the skills, and qualities of high performing trainers and assessors.

Become a Learnavore

APCOT are dedicated to feeding the inner beast, the LEARNAVORE that lurks within us all. Your LEARNAVORE is your inherent capability to learn in order to grow and develop your skills, knowledge and experiences. We love to work with people and help them feed their LEARNAVORE so that they can go on to lead and develop others.

We aspire to develop in ourselves, and the clients we work with, the underlying principles and values that form the 5 pillars of exceptional leaders as LEARNAVORES. They are:

• Astuteness: To be a leader as LEARNAVORE, you are one who is willing to develop people to the point that they surpass you in their knowledge and ability.
• Trustworthiness: LEARNAVORES treat people as if they were what they ought to be. They help them become what they are capable of being.
• Humaneness: LEARNAVORES are kind for they know that everyone they meet is fighting a hard battle.
• Conviction: LEARNAVORES jump off the cliff and build their wings on the way down (and if they crash, they pick themselves up, dust themselves off, learn from the experience and move on!)
• Discipline: LEARNAVORES have patience as they know all things are difficult before they become easy.

Members of APCOT have an open mind, a willingness to learn and keep on learning, and a desire to teach people how to develop others!
