Hi, just wanted to let you know that the room we were allocated today was really noisy and quite distracting from the course. Also the course content was really intense and we all found it really hard to concentrate in the afternoon (1-3pm) as we only had a 20 min break for lunch at 12:40am (after 3 hours continuous study). An idea would be a 15 min coffee break at 11:30am (after 2 hours study) followed by a 30 min lunch break (after a further 2 hours study). Just an idea.Response : Hi Jane Thanks for completing our feedback form on CourseCheck. There is always a lot to cover on our workshops and we have taken your comments on board. Best of luck in your qualification.

Had a great day - really enjoyed meeting everyone and starting out on my qualification. The only feedback I would give would be that when I arrived, nobody came to get me from the waiting area and I didn't know that the session was about to start which was a little disorienting. I was also a little concerned that maybe some of the content wasn't covered due to the number of questions that were asked about the assignment (which were handled very well by the train!) but I am confident that Joseph would have ensured that we covered everything that we needed to. Overall, a fantastic day - thank you!Response : Hi Charlotte Thanks for your response and I'm glad you enjoyed the day. Joseph is a very experienced trainer and I am sure, like you, he will have covered everything required. I have passed your comments on to the venue manager regarding the start of the session. Best of luck going forward.

Not very nice facilities. Cramped and the air conditioning unit made terrible noise. Not the first time I have experienced this from a Watson Martin course.Response : Dear Vimal Thank you for completing our feedback form on CourseCheck and we are sorry that you found the facilities lacking. We regularly review all our workshop venues and will take your comments on board. I am pleased that your overall experience of the day was positive. Best of luck with your qualification.

Really liked the trainers style and delivery. Think we could have had a bit more time on L & D role with some case studies to get a broader picture. But found the trainer very good and glad I have him on future modules.

There were slides missing from the printed pack given to us. It would be nice to have fruit in the table instead of biscuits.Response : Dear Catherine Thanks for your feedback which we have taken on board. Apologies for the missing slides but do get in touch if you would like a new complete printed pack. Best of luck with your programme.

I found the course really good but did struggle at times to get my hands on relevant materials for some of the 'free choice' L&D modules. It'd be useful if there was a greater bank of resources available to students to use for their wider reading.Response : Dear Anna Thank you for completing the feedback report on CourseCheck and I am pleased you enjoyed the course. I have noted your comments regarding accessing the relevant materials for some of the optional L&D modules. The majority of our candidates find the VLE very useful and this is the main source, along with the CIPD, for learning resources. However, I agree it can depend on the units chosen. Watson Martin offers the widest choice of CIPD optional modules provided by any centre and some of the L&D units, for which there is sometimes less demand, are still in the process of being uploaded on to the site. We are working hard to complete this as quickly as possible. Congratulations on achieving your qualification and best of luck in your career going forward. Lyndsey

Could have had print outs of course handbook or told us to print before course. Trainer was lovely, very knowledgeable and kept a good pace.

I felt Joseph was an engaging facilitator who clearly knew the subject matter well. In my view, he explained the structure of the assignment well & I left feeling confident in my approach to this. I feel clearer in what is expected of me. I found it good that we did a range of activities during the session. I thought it was a good idea for one group to work in a different room and also give us the option to work in a different space for the reflective activity. I enjoyed catching up with people I had met previously.
