Knowledgeable, approachable trainers are the provider’s most consistent strength: attendees say they explain challenging models clearly, adapt to the group and create welcoming spaces for honest discussion. They value interactive delivery, with breakout activities, case studies, reflection and practical exercises helping them learn from peers with varied backgrounds.

Some sessions feel information-heavy or rushed, but the training is generally well structured and engaging.

I personally struggled with todays delivery. The trainer Emma, was clearly very knowledgeable and passionate, but joked she went off on a tangent a lot and it was true. Many discussions went into other areas, content didn't stay where it needed to to ensure that we learnt the brief as required. I feel that the subjects on the slides, and theories and models we need to reference for our assignments needed to be clearer and covered to a higher level. The discussions and areas Emma went into were interesting, but I found it very all over the place, rushed and very difficult to concentrate and focus. More group activities and practical ways to practice the models would have helped us far more on the course. Many others within the group loved the delivery, so its just a personal preference. For me it was too disorganised, chaotic at times and lacked structure. Named extra models and theorists were mentioned insanely quickly, while trying to note each one, she was on to another. So I have a book of half scribbles and the most chaotic notes I have had to date from a module delivery. I have come away feeling overwhelmed and unconfident I have the knowledge from the session I needed. I will now be going on and watching another delivery from another trainer in the Ioda resources to ensure I have understood the module. Emma was clearly passionate about coaching and mentoring, but commented often on she goes off a lot and the day must have been hard for completer finishers and certain learning styles / personality types and it really was challenging and felt unmotivating and so hard to follow. Sat listening to someone, without much interactivity and group break outs to practice the practical side for almost 6 hours was too much for me. However it is clear Emma is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic but how the delivery impacts some should be considered more.

Emma Coller is a fantastic trainer and I found the content so useful and worthwhile, I felt really upbeat and today's class has re-engaged me into the course, particularly as I have felt so overwhelmed with the assignments and my personal workload lately.
