Needed more paper to write on (this may have been the hotels fault), print outs of the presentation would have been helpful. The exercises we were given were good, not over-simplified. They were challenging enough without making the content confusing.

There was a good balance of working with people outside your team and also working as a team. There were challenges (which there should be). I believe the proof of the success, as with any training, is being able to make changes and implement learnings into our everyday working lives. Fingers crossed!

The content was very good, but as mentioned eralier the exercises neeeded more role play to drive home the key message of the course.

We were told the course would start at 9 but on arrival at the venue we were told it started at 10. Also, we finished at lunchtime on the second day so it wasn't really a 2 day course.

Response: Hi Elissa - apologies regarding the start time, that was an administrative glitch at our end. I am sorry you felt the course was cut a little short - it should have been explained that with three people attending, the likelihood is all course material would have been easily covered within that timeframe. That said, Brian is available at any time for you if you have any follow-up questions in relation to this training - more than happy to put you in touch with him, just let me know and please do get in touch

The lunches were brilliant and a very good choices. Thank you very much

There was some pre-reading for the course but I never received it. It would have been interesting to go through this. There were extra documents at the end that you could take away for further reading but there was not enough for everyone.

Response: Thanks for the feedback Kate. The course organiser should have the pre-reading and it was our understanding this was to be issued before the event. Apologies if you didn't receive it. And yes, I believe we were one or two copies short on the handouts. If you need a copy, please just get in touch laura@cosensa.co.uk and I will email them through to you.

The only downside as expressed earlier I thought there would be more risk assessment part of the training. I liked the how the Instructor part of the course was taught. There was a few issue with the projector
