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.

The training was delivered in a fantastic way by a man who was extremely knowledgeable about the subject, and legislation involved, how and where to find it and apply it. The course was extremely enjoyable and instruction was given on how to complete the essays, including examples. The trainer developed a good rapport very quickly, with all the students. The materials provided were excellent and the trainer understood how overwhelming the information could be. I cannot think of any improvements that need to be made (except the technical difficulties involved with using Teams).

Prior to starting the course, I would say that I was not very confident with legal literacy, however the course has been so relevant to me and I am hopeful, I will get better as BIA. Materials provided and recommended reading materials were great and very helpful to develop as a BIA. I can't thank Max enough as his delivery and explanations were so on point to make the daunting course as most of saw it on day one, so easy as the days progressed.

The four days training was very intense and covers a lot of information. I did find it difficult with this being virtual for personal reasons but I thoroughly enjoyed the training. Sue was amazing and it is evident that she knows her stuff and is able to relay the information in a way that is easy to understand despite the complexity of the BIA role.
