5 of the laptops did not work properly and I think the attendees would have benefitted from a short summary of the work we carried out on the day rather than a 145 page booklet.

The only thing I would change is that staff are asked to provide examples of actual spreadsheets they work with. Obviously with sensitive information removed

This was not what I expected the course to be, internally we had been offered a facilitating course, but regardless I picked up some useful techniques and ways to consider meetings so it did achieve some of what I was after. Re the course materials, whilst they covered the topics on the agenda there were a couple of typos in the materials (paper and presentations) that could be corrected.

Response: Thank you for the feedback, Geoff. Yes, there appears to have been a breakdown in communication as to what was expected of this course. We have highlighted this to the course organiser. Apologies for the typos, we will look into that immediately!

It was very good.

The lunch was very good, I went to the course thinking it would be sandwiches and crisps? I was pleasantly surprised when we were taken down to the restaurant and could choose off the menu.

Coffee and quality biscuits were available most of the day - very good. The lunch was OK; sandwiches and orange juice.
