Finance training day was great and leader had a good pace was interesting and very clear.
Unfortunately there were some technical issues which delayed the start time but this kind of thing happens. It was evident that the attendees were confused about all the different ways that they have been able to save items over the last 3 years so there were lots of questions asked to try and make sense of the training that was being provided today. I think that whatever was in this training module will need revising unless some sort of pre -training release guidance document/flowchart can be distributed and read before hand to try and raise all staff awareness of the different software we have been using and what needs to be saved where and also what needs transferring and deleting.
Instructor Sal was very good (and patient). Course content was predetermined and not needs based so a lot of it initially appeared complex and irrelevant. Parts for me did not appear to be aimed at total excel novices. Suggest in future for one to one sessions more time is spent beforehand (and pre session) determining student needs. Only in the last hour when it was apparent I did not understand what was being taught and we discussed what I actually wanted to know did the course become more alive. That said some of the tools learnt in the morning were relevant to what i wanted to know.
Most of the material presented today was familiar to me, although the pre-learning I had not seen before. Useful to have time and headspace to reflect on attitude and leadership traits with a group of like-minded individuals
The course was comprehensive, but I already knew about most of the techniques and tools that were described. 3.5 hour is also a little bit long to concentrate on emails!
Really good. Although I would have liked more detail about report 'structure' and the headings used within a report. Also, I didn't think the grammar section was really necessary
One day one I was worried that the course was not going to meet the need of the attendees. The content seemed very 'entry level' and not something that was suitable for the experienced facilitators in the room. That being said, Rachael was very open to feedback and was very open to adapting the content and format of day two to meet our needs. The discussion was rich and valuable. Rachael created a strong sense of trust and is a fantastic listener.
I would have preferred more teaching and less participation
Great programme, has helped me develop some skills I was missing
