As usual with RRC materials, way too many slides that are a repetition of the book and very wordy. These should be reviewed and enhancements made where possible using other sources. There was a distinct lack of different teaching/training methods used. The entire course consisted of showing and reading from the slides. No use of videos, group work or other methods of teaching. Some attempt at utilising example exam questions was as far as it went. The additional resource materials handed out by the trainer were poor. The previous exam paper that had been scanned was upside down so pretty useless unless printed, hardly a good example of positive environmental practice. The crib sheets for finding places in the book were badly formatted and not much use. Unfortunate that the feedback system (which I like!) won't allow you to give anonymous feedback as some don't like leaving their name.

Found that the work book did not follow the slides and so time was spent going back and forth the book trying to find information to make notes In the correct areas.

Was a little slow and the trainer did find it hard at times to keep everyone engaged. Otherwise friendly and delivered what was required.

The course was long and on times was boring so lost myself could of had more interaction I had to go home and read the information again.

I really enjoyed the escape room and more examples of putting things into practice would have been great. A lot of the other stuff felt a bit theoretical and it wasn't always clear what the practical use of it was for instance the ego states. When we went over them again, it was clearer but initially I wasn't sure if we were aiming to identify peoples ego states or change their ego states.

This course was valuable at points, but felt too generic or not engaging at others. While the visualisations on demonstrating different perspectives is valuable, we spent quite a lot of time on it (as well as examples of non-verbal communication), and I felt the time could have been spent elsewhere on the collaborative tasks (or to allow for space where conversation unexpectedly developed). I appreciated that our instructor was willing to answer quite specific questions about my own communication style, but worried it was a waste of time for others.

Very well delivered and set out course. Far more content at a deeper level than I anticipated. unfortunately, the notes/pre-reading booklet was not emailed until halfway through the first day and apparently the exam link will be sent in a month, by which time I will struggle to remember what I learned for it.
