Best Interest Assessor (BIA) Training reviews

4.8 (267 reviews)
AI summary of reviews

Attendees particularly value the trainers’ ability to make complex legislation, case law and legal terminology clear, precise and practical. They describe Sue, Steve and Max as knowledgeable, patient, approachable and engaging, using real-world examples, case studies, discussion and group work to connect theory with BIA practice. The course is well structured, with useful materials and a supportive pace that builds confidence in applying the Mental Capacity Act, DoLS and best-interests principles at work, although the content feels intensive for some.

I felt that the mixture of teaching and learning methods was really good, there was opportunity to ask questions and engage. The trainer checked knowledge and learning as we went along in a way that did not make you feel put on the spot.

I was shocked to see how many law I have to digest as a BIA but the trainer was calm and encouraging, she simplifies the contents of the course on each day and try as much as she can to remove any fear I may be nursing towards becoming a BIA. At the end of it all , it became more clearer and enjoyable.

Max is very impressive with his natural knowledge of the law. He ensured the pace of the training was suitable for everyone in the room. He has offered many forms of support during and after the course. I am finishing the course feeling empowered to continue my development as a BIA.

I came into the course feeling very settled in my understanding of the law, however the course has given me an even greater understanding and respect for the law and the framework that protects me as a social worker but also as a best interest assessor. The course was very interesting and engaging and Max was very friendly and easy to identify with - he made the course very accessible and catered it to everyone's needs. Thank you.

I’ve really enjoyed the course despite being overwhelmed at one point with legislation. I can already see how my learning will contribute towards my Social Work practice and give me a strong foundation to progress towards becoming a best interests assessor.
