The Legend Behind it all
At Care Training, we’re here to support people in health and social care from ‘good’ to ‘bloody brilliant.’ And it all started with one remarkable woman—Leigh Kelly. Since becoming a registered nurse in ’74, Leigh devoted her life to caring for the elderly, the disabled, and young people in need.
Leigh wasn’t just another nurse; she was a true pioneer. From running a rest home to launching her first venture “Clinical Update” in 2004, she brought hands-on training and real empathy back to healthcare. Leigh’s mission was always clear—make caregiving meaningful. When she launched CareTrainingOnline.com in 2011, she made her practical, affordable training available across New Zealand, helping caregivers and the organisations that rely on them to lift their game.
Carrying the Torch Forward and a Bit About Us
Today, we’re proud to carry Leigh’s legacy forward. Our leadership team has over 25 years of experience in health and social care education, spanning mental health, disability support, and organisational management. Like Leigh, we put people first, delivering training that’s efficient, relevant, and built to make life easier for every kaimahi involved.
What's on the Horizon
What’s on the Horizon for Care Training? We’re all about making training accessible, relevant, and engaging—designed to work for kaimahi with busy lives and big responsibilities. Our approach builds on Leigh’s vision, keeping training real and relatable, whether it’s online, face-to-face, or on the go. With curiosity-driven content, adaptive learning paths, and a bit of cheeky Kiwi humour, we’re creating an experience that feels more like an upgrade than a task. We’re committed to staying ahead with industry insights, on-demand expert support, and gamified progression, so every learner sees real growth and every organisation gains genuine value. Leigh’s legacy of empowering caregivers lives on in every kaimahi who trains with us, and we’re honoured to carry that torch forward—helping kaimahi become the best at what they do and ensuring they feel like the legends they are.
