Paul facilitated well especially considering not everyone had the full Visio software. He was flexible and responded to all our questions.
Despite us having a different version this did not phase Paul - he remained calm throughout the training. We could understand the different versions whilst still learning and shaping the training for our needs. I feel equipped to implement the training into practice from what I have learned from the training today. Very welcoming and engaging.
It was a very insightful session on Visio and we also learnt tips and tricks in Microsoft Office as a whole. Paul made sure everyone learnt the step before moving on and involved us in the session by sharing screens and talking us through - if we were in any difficulty. Paul welcomed questions and gave detailed explanations.
