I need to speak to someone at Guidestar. How do I do that?

If you email us at learning@guidestar.au our training manager will get back to you as soon as possible. They will also provide you with a mobile number so you can talk directly, or they will call you if you provide your contact details in the email. 

I did not get a certificate when I completed a module. Why?

To gain a certificate you must view every slide in the module, complete the quiz questions and complete any simulated role-play activities. Your certificate will then appear when you get to the last slide.

If you are viewing the module in full-screen mode, you may need to minimise it for your certificate to appear.

You can then download and save your certificate.

There is no certificate for completing a guide.

The platform is not working properly. I can’t open the modules or the module is freezing when I am using it. What is the problem?

Please contact us directly if you are having functional problems with the platform. We will endeavour to resolve your issue as soon as possible.

Some large organisations and companies have internal firewalls that block external sites. If you think this might be the problem, please see next FAQ.

 

I think my company or organisation has a firewall blocking your platform. What can I do about this?

Your company or organisation may have certain security settings in place that blocks unknown external platforms from being viewed. In the first instance, you need to speak with your own IT department and see if you can resolve the issue at your end.

If you cannot find a solution, please don’t hesitate to contact us directly via learning@guidestar.au
