Lecturing & Mentoring

One of the things I enjoy most of all is passing on my skill to others.

Along with my professional career - I taught music for some 25 years and have in the last few years enjoyed lecturing at RMIT, Swinburne and Wodonga TAFE and also the Ongoing Personal Development of Celebrants. Mentoring of student celebrants is something I find extremely rewarding. It helps the students to see an experienced celebrant in action and gives them direct access to someone who can be there to help them through their studies.

I am lecturing Face-to-Face Marriage and Funeral Celebrancy for those who wish to study it in a class situation. Please contact me if you would like to discuss this mode of delivery.

I lecture on many subjects ranging from Celebrancy, to Public Relations Techniques, "Writing for the Internet" through to "Online Communications".

I have enjoyed training celebrants on subjects such as Music within ceremony, Personalising Ceremonies, Business - Marketing etc.

Here are some testimonials on my lecturing of Authorised Celebrants, Students and prospective students:

Debbie KT - Ceremonies of Life 2006

Sally, your knowledge of ceremony is fantatic. You are an inspiration and a very positive influence for me. You are so generous with your experiences and knowledge of this area and I admire you for the exceptional way in which you share this with your students. You empower people to feel they can achieve and you give them the tools to do so.

Brenda Joyce - OPD June 2005 - Melbourne

May I say Sally, how much I enjoyed your workshop. You delivered it with panache and professionalism and your knowledge of music was quite awe-inspiring. Many, many thanks.

Anne Overton - Swinburne Uni Graduate - semester 1 - 2005

Sally Cant is such a dynamic person, with such a wealth of knowledge and experience to impart; never ceasing to be of assistance, in person, by phone or internet. Thanks for all your help Sally.

Isabel Dunstan OAM, Albury 1st April 2005

It was such a pleasure to meet you on Friday at the Seminar in Albury. You inspired me! and I thoroughly enjoyed the Music in Marriage Ceremony.

Jane Harvey - Albury 1st April 2005

It was an absolute pleasure to have met you on Friday. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing your wonderful knowledge and expertise with me.
You have inspired me immensely! I have gone through my CD collection and have 70 songs to start off my collection and guess what????? I have just added 4 songs to my first naming ceremony - I get goose bumps listening to them! I can't wait! I really have taken on your advice of taking my PA system to every ceremony, so thank you, as you have done all the research, and I think the PA will be an invaluable tool. I am so happy that I can provide my clients quality music sound in ceremonies!!!!

I appreciate you sharing your resources with me. I look forward to the July seminar - fingers crossed - my sister is due to have her baby in July sometime, I will beg her to keep her legs crossed :). Have a wonderful day and thanks once again.

Ginny Bydder - Albury 1st April 2005

.... what a great tutor you are. Over the years I've endured many tutors and you sure rank up there with the best of them. Thanks for your inspiration and wisdom.

Jill Harper - Hobart 28th Jan 2005

I want to say thank you for a great day last Thursday here in Tassie. I found your presentation of the music OPD inspiring. The other important benefit for me was the networking and the confirmation that I was pretty much on the right track.

I did enjoy the day -It was just what I wanted and now I want more and more!

I have spoken to my colleagues, and told them of the day. I think we will make some moves to forming a group (probably informally at this stage) and involving you where possible. Hopefully! Thank you again Sally.

Elizabeth Gray - Hobart Jan 2005

I think we have established the nucleus of a great, like minded celebrant group here in Hobart with your help. So really, your January OPD was indeed very timely, particularly for those of us who were newer celebrants.
Of course the word will spread and the next OPD you will need to plan for a bigger room I think because of numbers.
Thanks Sally, for being so friendly and natural and for being so generous with your advice and assistance during our few hours together on Thursday. I am sure that my comments reflect the thoughts of all who attended. I found our OPD mightily beneficial and look forward to attending many more. Very best wishes,
