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.

It was quite interactive and informative, the trainer ensured it was broken down and delivered in an understandable and memorable manner.

Overall it was a very good training, I feel quite passionate about the subject in a way I didn't before. I signed up to Bond Solon because it was only 4 days long training; however I came to realise that it may be a bit too short. I feel quite confused about what I have learnt and will need to do an awful lot of self-directed learning to get my head around how the whole lot fits together. However, it is expected at Masters level. It would of been nice to include a practicing BIA's knowledge and views in the training.

The trainer was very knowledgeable and passionate around the subject. With this being a new area for me, I personally would have benefitted from more video's / visuals to be able put theory to practice. There was a lot to learn over four days, perhaps the course should have been delivered over a longer period of time.

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.
