Happy Reviews

I did learn a lot from attending the course, however I found the pace very quick in parts and felt that the course could have been delivered in an easier manner. The facilitator spoke very quickly and it was extremely difficult to keep up and hear every instruction at times. People who attended the training had to ask for parts to be repeated. When you asked for something to be repeated or explained that you had got lost through the instructions you were asked to share your screen and get advice from the facilitator or the other participants were asked to guide you. I felt pressured and uncomfortable with this method of teaching at multiple times during the training and it made me on edge on every task to keep up. I appreciated that they were trying to make sure a lot of people didn't get lost and not understand the sections but feel that there could have been a more comfortable way of delivering. We were told we could pass or speak to the facilitator privately at break times if the learning style didn't suit us but I didn't feel comfortable doing that as the facilitator could at times come across harshly. I don't think that was intentional, I think they were being assertive, strict and wanted us to learn but a slower speaking style and calmer tone would have been appreciated when learning something new. I feel I would have learnt easier without the pressure and in a calmer environment.

Welcoming venue, good paced course, adjusted for learning styles if required within the group. top effort.

Another fantastic and for me personally very timely session that has helped me a great deal, I love working with Nicky she is a fabulous facilitator and makes the space one that is comfortable and feels safe.

Good session that was very informative. I appreciated the interactive nature of the session as this helped to cement my understanding

This was the best professional development course I've attended and I would absolutely recommend Happy to friends and colleagues. I really enjoyed the sessions and the content was very applicable to the challenges I'm currently facing at work.

Excellent, a good few hours. Took a lot of good things from the training and looking forward to using them everyday.

Today's session could have been a very dry and intense session, however, Jo, Brendan and Sophie managed to make it very rich and reassuring at the same time. I felt very supported through the day (although needed to step out and was late due to commute). Thank you to Brendan for staying behind and helping me to navigate through the assignments.

Great session today. It’s given me a lot to think about.

Really great training session, inclusive and kept energy and engagement at a consistent level throughout

DJ (not sure on spelling) was great! Really confidently delivered and was very knowledgeable of the content he delivered. He was always have to delve into topics as they were relevant to us. He was also happy to say of he was unsure about something. Very happy, I'll have some stuff I will apply directly to my events.
