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 enjoyed being on the course because I have gained knowledge and skills which was lacking before the training. The training helped me to consider more of applying the law in completing my assessments. The trainer explained the information very well and makes it look more easier in practice.

Max was absolutely great as a trainer, he always managed to make very long, and sometimes 'dry' information as interesting as he could. He was very knowledgeable in all areas and always ensured we were able to express our opinions. I will recommend this training to other colleagues.

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.
