I would recommend the course, there was a lot of content covered and Susan was very happy to focus in on keys areas of the course as we required. Priorities and areas of focussed considered for all delegates. Content put in to practise on live examples. Susan was more than happy to work on some challenges directly with us there and then. Susan is clearly very knowledgable and happy to support with all queries. Together we were able to work through some challenges in order to resolve. Susan also allows you to try things out and approach things in different ways but ensuring you are kept on track and thins are kept neat and tidy!

I would recommend the course to others. Susan is very knowledgeable and has a great ability to provide simple explanations to potentially complex queries. The Beehive venue is very nice and I found the course administration to be very simple and straightforward.
