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 think the mental capacity elements of the course would be particularly helpful to all social workers even if not being BIA as was made very interested. The course was very full on and information heavy at the start for a few days but it all then came together on the last day and half and went from overwhelming to some how all making sense and I retained more information than I expected and also found the DoLS atlas very helpful, managed to print it off as a large atlas to help me and shared how i did this with others and the course was quite funny.

Sue is brilliant. Her teaching style is incredible and checking to make sure the students are okay. The interaction level is balance with lots of opportunities to ask questions and engage. I think Sue should be a writer due to her high linguistics level and very articulate and detailed.

the course is relevant to my practice and it has equipped me with knowledge and skills needed for the job. I found the course empowering and eye opening, educative and informative. I feel like I am bursting with information. It has been a steep learning for me given my background of children social work. It can be overwhelming sometimes having to imbibe the legislations and the framework which underpin the role. The trainer was very good in helping to ease off the overload of information. It might help considering how the first day training can be tailored to the level of professionals who are not from the background of adult services to introduce them to the course. As it can feel like thrown in the deep end on the first day. Also if there can be room for at least two sessions of group work. But I am also mindful of the duration of the courses and whether there is room to add more content. Mor than one case study discussion would have been good.
