The training was led by an approachable trusted professional and he encouraged us to bounce ideas off each other and share experiences. This helped liven up what could be a dry subject. The white board walls were really helpful as training room walls, making doing visuals during the course easy. Doing the course has been helpful to concentrate my mind on what is important to keep thinking of in my role. The accredited qualification is also a welcome addition to my CV. Yes, I would recommend both course and provider wholeheartedly.
