Excellent course, Phillip Bond made everything clear and involved everybody in the course/tasks. The training is excellent, however it just does not really apply to our role - this is not a criticism of the supplier. My only criticism is, as the course content doesn't apply to our role, we should not be required to provide a case study related to our area of work (in the assessments). This could be adjusted to require just a general case study, however I recognise this would have been difficult for BS to pre-empt.

It would have been useful to link more closely to our policies and procedures. Perhaps an introduction to put into context. I learned a lot from the officers on the course who were already experienced.

Really good course and very beneficial due to the limited exposure most 'experienced' officers get to deal with search warrants.

Really interesting course, that was interactive and engaging throughout, it was a great group on the call and trainer was engaging, answering all questions put to him and allowing us to discuss openly and promote a positive environment to discuss conflict/difficult conversations.

It was a good course and I went away knowing more about different conflict styles and how I can approach conflict effectively. I would say that it could have been shorter and didn't need a full day. Also we didn't have access to course material which was supposed to have been sent beforehand.

Chris was extremely knowledgable about the subject matter. He created great group discussion which maintained interest throughout the long day. Definitely take key points away and apply in my everyday role which makes me more confident to deal with any future conflicts that may occur. Thanks

Would have been helpful if our team had shared the policies to the instructor. Overall she was very friendly, knowledgeable and happy to answer any questions. I normally hate breakouts and role plays but I found these useful and supported the course well.

The course training was very insightful, which I feel has boosted my confidence. I am sure that with what I have so far gained, there would be so much improvement in my practice especially with regards to completing MCA/BIA

I found the course enjoyable and can really see the value for less experienced colleagues. Not sure what session is given to trainees but I could see a version of this being great as the same guidance is relevant to orders as well. I think if this rolled out it should be if possible attended when it is identified that a warrant is likely to be sought so that it is fresh in the mind. From memory I think we have only had one case a year since lockdown where we obtained search warrants on branch.

Highly interesting and informative,
