Mary is an exceptional trainer with so much knowledge and experience. I appreciated her taking the time to find out what I needed from the course and then tailoring it to suit my needs. The content and delivery was outstanding and I now feel a lot more confident with plenty of new ideas and techniques to put in to practice.

Response: Delighted to hear you had such a positive experience with Mary. I have passed on your comments to her and she is thrilled to hear you have taken elements of the training back into the workplace - that's how it should be! :)

The only downside to the venue and facilities was the heating within the training room / building

Communication was excellent throughout. Very relevent materials. The materials were very in depth. I was relieved not to go through all written material in the manual. Brian was an outstanding trainer/ mentor and I hope our paths cross again in the future. I didn't give the facilities 5 stars as the data projector on day 2 was extremely noisy and needed to be drop kicked out of the room! All other facilities were great!

Response: Thanks for the great review, Richard, we will pass your comments on to Brian and noted about the projector, will get that sorted

We had soup and sandwiches for lunch, and I liked that it was not too much, as so often on these types of things you are served a huge meal which makes you sleepy for the rest of the afternoon! I also very much enjoyed the scones with clotted cream at the tea break. I thought that the training centre was easy to get to, and the room was very nice, with plenty natural light.

A really worthwhile and beneficial course. The trainer was extremely knowledgeable in this subject and willingly shared/covered practical step-by-step approaches, tools, tips and techniques with the group. I asked lots of questions and these were dealt with in a really helpful and constructive way. Having attended this training, I feel much more confident and equipped to progress the project I have been given to manage.

Fantastic trainer, really made the course. Irene was totally focussed on the learners and made sure no one was left behind while no one was bored either. Very knowledgable, friendly and proffessional.
