It would have been nice if there was mixture of videos and texts for the learning material.

There was sufficient material to get your teeth into along with the additional reading.

Just an observation - many of the final assignments had mixed up names of characters, giving, for example, an anecdote about 'John' and then asking how one would reply to 'Tony'. It just felt a little less professional....

The Lecture notes that were sent were very enriching and i shared a lot of it with some friends and clients, it even opened up talks with people outside my circle of influence.

The course has been helpful and meaningful for me in terms of learning how to talk with my clients who expereieced losses. The contents of the course and materials are really good however I rated for four stars for the convenience of course materials notes. It seems to be updated more than once but some contents reminded overlapped and it was confusing. Beside, I wished if there were page numbers on the course material notes.

Course content good, but quite awkward accessing via lengthy PDF documents. Provision of on-line course material with more interactivity would have been preferable.
