The training could have been done in half a day. I feel that a lot of things were repeated and over explained. There was a whiteboard used where the trainer was writing things which was hard to see. These could have been put into a slide and shared. The stories that were said was irrelevant, but the trainer than asked as a group if we found them useful, which put you in a difficult and uncomfortable position to say no. The trainer did spotlight people who may have not been comfortable talking which was not a good tactic. As for the actual subject material, there was not much that I learnt.
Geraint was great and really appreciate his efforts. Feedback for Bond Solon - I didn't take as much away from the course as I would have hoped and am disappointed that this was a mandatory unit for me in my APCIP. I haven't learnt anything new so it has felt like a waste 2 days. I am an experienced investigator and this was almost entirely already known to me.
I preferred the discussion element’s but overall very good- thank you
Overall learnt things to apply to my work and assignments understood the layout and role I play and how to structure reports and how they should be written with a checklist.
Trainer was very knowledgeable but i felt that this was very 'entry level' and aimed at candidates with little or no knowledge of disclosure etc. it was of limited use to those with a police or investigative background
Two short exercises in the whole day and no slides made it very hard going, especially when online. Richard's knowledge was excellent however
I think there should be some more focus on the role of the obstetrician in this topic as well. It would have been more applicable to involve an obstetrican with expertise in counselling to take on the parts that will focus on the osbtetric colleagues
The course was good but it was more geared towards witness statement writing which was not hugely required although the materials and trainer knowledge was good. I was more needing an input on report writing, and that part in the afternoon was useful. Thanks
The trainer was very kind and approachable. Overall the training was fair however, much of the content didn't get covered. The trainer made lots of time for open discussion however, this was at detriment to the course content. At times I felt the trainer could be more concise in their responses. The trainer could have been stricter at moving us on. Sometimes when asking questions, I felt the trainer interrupted before we had time to ask the question in full. Much of the content covered was a refresher of knowledge I already I had.
