Bond Solon Reviews

Paul was very knowledgeable. He was empathetic as well and explained the course really well. He put us in break out rooms so that we will practice more. Catherine was also great and contributed positively. Thank you Paul and Catherine

I have a better understanding of coaching, and how this differs from supervising supervision. I have been able to reflect on my practice and how I can make positive changes.

Really good course Well paced, breakout rooms were used well to keep conversation flowing but not spend too long being talked at, small groups were more comfortable than bigger ones and the topics were specific to help focus conversation

The training was a great supplement to the training manual and helped bring the material to life. I will still need to read through the manual in more detail at a later date to fully embed and reinforce today's learning. The trainer created an excellent environment for learning. She was knowledgeable, engaging, and clearly passionate about the subject matter, which made the session both informative and enjoyable. I think Microsoft Teams is a great medium for delivering training and it was used effectively throughout the session. One small suggestion would be to personalise the trainer's display name rather than using a generic label such as "Bond Solon Trainer 8". The trainer came across as very personable and approachable, and having her name displayed would have helped reinforce that connection and made the experience feel even more engaging.

really enjoyed the breakout rooms - rich conversations and chance to practice coaching skills

very good course which has provided clarity on what our powers are within the legislation.

I completed this course last year at a face to face event. I found doing the course online today was too rushed. Although we were frequently asked if we understood or if we had any questions, there was not enough of a pause for us to consider each topic, and share views/experiences, before we moved onto the next topic.

My knowledge has improved significantly but I also feel that there is a lot more to understand due to the recent changes.

Felt that the solicitor was not prepared for the court room, the solicitor did not read our notebooks before we were to take the stand and was just asking questions as he was going through our notebooks and witness statements. Court room didn’t have an usher or a clerk, so the setting felt a bit unrealistic. Trainer was good though and engaging during the explanation of court procedures and how we should answer questions presented by the solicitor.

All brilliant and very interesting
