The structure and design of the course content and material was clear and well laid out in the presentation which facilitated a deep understanding of CBT. The course material from the cert to the dip, was clearly linked and build upon making the wealth of information less daunting.

Perhaps some video material would help. But the theoretical aspects were very adequate. The assessment questions relevant and dynamic.

The downloadable resources were fine; as mentioned above, the YouTube clips were a little dated and sometimes a little tricky to find.

The material was very clear, and there were plenty of examples to illustrate the principles and use of the tools. The portfolio questions and assignments were excellent in provoking deep thought and drawing out learning.

The course was enriching in that it provided helpful background to coaching, what it is about and the theory behind the different possible practical approaches to it. It has provided a toolkit for the coaching I am currently involved in. It also gave me a lot of food for thought on a personal level - some of the Practice Activities encouraged a deep level of personal reflection that was of value.
