Astutis Reviews

This was a good course which highlighted the importance of the health and safety aspects within the workplace and specifically obligations. There were aspects that can be applied into the workplace to aid risk assessment on products as part of development.

Great presenter - very good overall session - was expecting more, but not sure that expectation was realistic. Excellent overview!

Huw talked too much and went off on tangents. David has been the best trainer we have had so far.

This course does not do well on line, it would be much better as an in person course. It was frustrating that so many of the interactive sessions were skipped, but we did more this time than in Week 1. Both tutors displayed a depth of knowledge about the subject matter that was impressive and their style was better. However, Huw did occasionally digress but I liked his examples, he did also have a tendency to talk over people and not let them finish. David was similar but on one occasion he cut me off and refused to let me speak because he assumed I was going to say something incorrect. I found this very rude and it annoyed me to the extent that I left the class. He made no attempt to check in with me following this incident. It must be quite difficult to get the balance right when you have a diverse group like ours, we had a number of people who knew a lot already but there were some of us who knew very little. That made it difficult to ask questions and it could feel quite awkward. This has left a couple of us feeling unsure about certain elements.

was very useful thanks

Course tutor was lovely and really tried to get the group engaged but it was a tough crowd! The material was presented in a great way and I liked the break out rooms and discussions. The day was also planned with regular breaks, which for me being disabled and chronically ill was great so was a very inclusive session. My lower scores reflect how relevant the course is to my job.
