Bond Solon Reviews

Good facilitator and very good at bringing the subject to life, but I would have preferred more formal strategies on how to manage conflict and less break out rooms.

The training could have been done in half a day. I feel that a lot of things were repeated and over explained. There was a whiteboard used where the trainer was writing things which was hard to see. These could have been put into a slide and shared. The stories that were said was irrelevant, but the trainer than asked as a group if we found them useful, which put you in a difficult and uncomfortable position to say no. The trainer did spotlight people who may have not been comfortable talking which was not a good tactic. As for the actual subject material, there was not much that I learnt.

Very good session

Geraint was great and really appreciate his efforts. Feedback for Bond Solon - I didn't take as much away from the course as I would have hoped and am disappointed that this was a mandatory unit for me in my APCIP. I haven't learnt anything new so it has felt like a waste 2 days. I am an experienced investigator and this was almost entirely already known to me.

I preferred the discussion element’s but overall very good- thank you

Overall learnt things to apply to my work and assignments understood the layout and role I play and how to structure reports and how they should be written with a checklist.

Trainer was very knowledgeable but i felt that this was very 'entry level' and aimed at candidates with little or no knowledge of disclosure etc. it was of limited use to those with a police or investigative background

Two short exercises in the whole day and no slides made it very hard going, especially when online. Richard's knowledge was excellent however

I think there should be some more focus on the role of the obstetrician in this topic as well. It would have been more applicable to involve an obstetrican with expertise in counselling to take on the parts that will focus on the osbtetric colleagues

The course was good but it was more geared towards witness statement writing which was not hugely required although the materials and trainer knowledge was good. I was more needing an input on report writing, and that part in the afternoon was useful. Thanks
