Bond Solon Reviews

I feel I wasn't comfortable enough to partake fully throughout the course following an individual incident that occurred during the first morning , I recognise and appreciate the feedback I was given however some tact and empathy would have gone a long way for me personally and from that moment I no longer felt comfortable speaking up within the group, however, I did learn things from the course materials and notes taken

Alot to cover in 1 session, not specific to work as an EMI was confusing as aimed at AHO's who have knowledge of the type of case studies and processes.

The course provided an excellent opportunity for different stakeholders within HMRC FIS to discuss the drafting and assurance process of Court Orders. I feel that a greater focus at a higher level would have been far more beneficial.

Great course, but not a lot of examples for the job as an MHI

Having now completed a face to face course and an on line version, I felt so much engaged with the face course rather than the on line version. I feel this is so more interactive and hands on especially when considering and demonstrating the break away techniques

It would be useful to observe a Defence advocate cross examining another professional to understand how to deal with cross exam techniques

I felt the first hour was too long. I did not need to hear everyone's name and role and how they rated themselves. This could be even longer if there is a bigger group. I could see everyone's name and we know our roles. We did not need to spend too much time looking at objectives as we all want to make clearer, more factual records. Also the writing in the chat as to where we make records in our jobs was unnecessary as we all do the same role so everyone sharing that may help the trainer but I felt it just wasted time. I felt the fact/inference exercise was very good and also the practice of taking notes from a colleague's description of a journey. I feel more exercises like these would be helpful so that people are able to practice what the training is imparting.

Having an function which would allow notes to be recorded by me onto the slides to maintain clarity for learning and future reference would help.

The course would benefit from being split into at 'beginner' and 'advanced' level R&C. For those who have been doing R&C for a while it was at times rather basic but for beginners the material would be valuable. Reduce the amount of case law. Although it is useful 118 slides were rather a lot

Thank you
