As you know, we are booking further sessions for the New Year and I suspect that the course will form part of the ongoing development programme.ʼ Christine Henderson, Training and Development Manager, Morgan Cole Solicitors ʻAfter your first training session, the HR department was overwhelmed with requests to attend your next session. Feedback such as ʻthe best training session the Museum has organisedʼ, and ʻthe best course Iʼve ever attendedʼ were received by the department. Staff have sought me out confidentially to tell me that they are using the techniques you taught them and, more importantly, that they are benefitting from doing so. The post-attendance evaluation forms were the best I have seen - every attendee rated the course as Excellent.ʼ Kaye Blanch, Head of HR, National Museum of Wales ʻThank you for the training session you provided for our managers. It was an excellent introduction to the importance of emotional health and wellbeing and the feedback from our managers has been extremely positive.’ Victoria Luke, HR Operations Manager, Veolia Water Outsourcing Ltd (Dwr Cymru/Welsh Water) ʻI wish to thank you for the excellent sessions you ran for all our staff - the feedback from all was entirely positive. This is praise indeed when you recognise that a lot of our staff are used to undertaking group work and presentations themselves so some can be difficult to please. The Evaluation documentation was a pleasure to read and comments included: ʻSuperb trainingʼ, ʻExcellent speakerʼ (this was repeated time and time again), and ʻGood mixture of theory and practice. Jon was articulate, knowledgeable and entertainingʼ. I have rarely been in a situation where I can say that this training will be replicated most definitely in the future but this is indeed the case.’ David Spray, HR Manager, Careers Wales Cardiff and Vale Who we work for
