Course was relevant to the role I perform as authorising officer, particularly appreciated the examples and the experiences the trainer (Emma) delivered throughout to make a very dry subject interesting and palatable. Emma was exceptional in her delivery and presentation. Thx

A really enjoyable course, pitched at the right level. Very inclusive and interactive in a relaxed environment. The case study was very useful.

A really good and informative event; despite a reasonable level of experience, there was definitely more for me to take on board, which I fully appreciated. Good level of presentation and engagement from all concerned.

Excellent. I thought the course was presented extremely well throughout, Emma was very engaging. The course face-to-face worked really well and brought up my knowledge and thought process in relation to the search warrant application.

Really enjoyed the course, as a new SIO I've done a few courses in the last few months and this has been the most interesting. The SW checking process and knowledge passed on during this also lends itself well to to Production Orders. I think this course should be rolled out to the applicants of SW as it would assist in the process.

Emma was a really engaging and positive trainer. I felt comfortable enough to open up regarding how nervous i was being a checking officer as the jump from Officer to Higher Officer is large and feels like there is no training and you're just supposed to get on with it. Felt like I learnt a lot from Emma and I liked the way she related what she was saying to real life examples

I've really enjoyed today and feel more confident in being able to fulfil the AO role on any future Warrants. The trainer was absolutely lovely, had everyone's attention and was obviously very knowledgeable with many tales.

Really good awareness session always helps to refresh knowledge and also be wary of potential pitfalls - especially revealing intelligence sources
