Just a few bits we went over had been covered in the intermediate course.

Trainer dealt with first aid incident very well and kept training course on track. Clearly communicated and shared ideas and processes with the group.

Very useful and interesting material covered. Smart not to give notes at the start of the training sessions instead at the end. Enjoyed presenting to the group and getting feedback both positive and constructive.

Very good but I would have like more opportunity to test out my coaching skills. I intend to use this newfound skill immediately with my colleagues.

Room temperature was significantly low. Not having a break-out space to have a lunch was unusual. Facilities overall were disappointing.

Response: Thank you for the feedback, David. Our apologies about the problems with the room. We have highlighted the issue of room temperature to the landlord of the Business Centre and are putting measures in place to ensure this doesn't happen again

All good.

The training room on day one was ice cold with no heating. Everyone complained about this. Day two we changed room and this was much more suitable.

Response: Thank you for the feedback, Janet, and we are sorry we didn't resolve the issues around the room in day one. We have put measures in place to ensure this doesn't happen again.

Not yet received the course materials and so difficult to comment.

I really enjoyed the course on Friday 27th January 16. Callum was very helpful, established what we were looking for at the start of the day and ensured he covered everything we wanted. He encouraged interaction between all of the students where I was able to gain some handy tips from other users. Although I have a good understanding of Excel, I feel that the course has filled in some gaps and expanded on my knowledge, I now feel more confident in particular around formulae.
