It was an excellent course. I am happy to say that I thoroughly enjoyed the course I attended. The tutor was well briefed, interesting and facilitating. I also learned a lot, which I have been applying not only at work, but at home too. The information was so well delivered. It wasn't scary, but provided us with sound information to keep us within safe practices. Manage Cookie Preferences
