Communications Officer, East Kent Hospitals University Foundation Trust

"Andy was extremely well prepared and knowledgeable. The pace was good for all attendees even though we were of mixed ability. Those that were less experienced were able to keep up, but as a someone with more experience I didn't feel the pace was too slow. The course covered exactly what it advertised. I've never attended training remotely but it was such an easy process and well executed. I didn't feel I missed out on anything not being in the classroom. It was great to have the practical element at the end of the second day - the check list was really useful to ensure I practiced everything covered in the course."
Publications Coordinator, Hafele UK Ltd

"I took part in the online training, which I was little apprehensive about. I wasn't sure i would be able to pick up as much. However, it was so clear and simple to follow that i don't feel i missed anything different to if i was in the classroom. Andy was very clear and led the sessions well. It was engaging and you could tell his knowledge was impeccable. He made sure I was following and understood what he was going through and made sure I felt part of the training even though i wasn't in the room."
