Our Journey
Since 2012, One Training, co-founded by former rugby league player Chris Lawrence and vocational education expert Leon Keir, has been committed to empowering individuals through innovative, tailored education. We quickly established ourselves as leaders in athlete and community training, with our 2019 academic paper, Empowering Elite Athlete Education, reflecting our dedication to advancing education for elite athletes. In 2020, we collaborated with the Collingwood Magpies to deliver pre-employment training during the COVID-19 crisis, and by 2021, we became a Registered Training Organisation. Our 2022 partnership with First Nations communities and the NRL led to the Athlete Mentor program, combining education with personal and professional development. In 2023, we advanced the digital literacy of job seekers and launched the Skills for Life program. By 2024, we expanded to deliver 14 Skills for Life programs across six regions, continuing our mission to transform lives through education and workforce development.

Academic Publication
In 2019, One Training collaborated with the University of Western Sydney to publish a research paper in The International Journal of Sport and Society titled Empowering Elite Athlete Education. This groundbreaking study delved into the unique challenges professional athletes encounter when balancing education with their competitive careers. Our goal was to develop an educational delivery framework that provides tailored support, enabling athletes to excel in their studies while continuing to train and compete at the highest level. This publication highlights our commitment to bridging the gap between elite sport and education, ensuring athletes have the tools and resources they need to thrive both on and off the field.
