It was a relaxed course, with loads of practical information which is what I attended for.

This course has helped me have a different perspective on different situations in every day life both work and personal and a better understanding of how to cope with stressful situations.

The course gave some good tips on updating CV's , I also did not realise how Linkedin has become so popular and whilst I have a profile I need to update the information within it as Fran explained that 75% of people get their next job via Linkedin! I haven't attended this type of training in quite some time, I really enjoyed it as It revisited many things that I was familiar with in previous roles. It was for me a good refresher.

It was good to have the time to stop and properly think and consider our roles and our motivations towards them. I liked the content and how the trainer explained everything really well.

It gave me some useful tools and an 'action plan' in terms of the future of LGR and what is means for my current position. It was extremely beneficial hearing from other authorities and their concerns. It also gave me some ideas to bring back to branch that we could potentially implement here in the interim.

I learned a lot about how my pension can work for me and how it will fit my required retirement. Really enjoyed and helped me feel very confident and positive about retirement. The after care with advice and support is excellent.

The course provided a deeper understanding of the wide spectrum of the mental health issues in general and of the wealth of resources available to all including first aiders, families and friends who maybe impacted as result of dealing with stressful situations. The content was great, so is the way it was run, always allowed room for discussion, open scenarios and sharing experience. Very active, interesting and practical conversations made it easy to remember and relate to in real situations

My main objective was to learn more around carrying out PDR/1:1's and dealing with conflicts. The course did that but also much more. I found Sue thoroughly engaging and she made the course enjoyable for all.

My objective was to find benefits regarding mental clarity and communication both in professional and private life. With busy days and flexible working hours the lines between the 2 get blurred and not always easy to separate. Language used was easily understood with practical clear examples used. I particularly liked the trainer asking student to suggest a sentence which was then helpfully reframed . It did not feel like we were being criticised but helped to improve - all very positive

It was a good refresher on knowledge I'd learnt in a PRINCE2 course a few years ago. Creating some new documentation, such as a new project plan/gantt chart which will be really useful.

I have recommended that this course should be attended by more officers at my level in the organisation to gain an understanding of the wider context and budget pressures facing Local Government and to understand how their financial decision making impacts the wider budget.

It was very useful, exceeded what I was expecting to learn and very engaging. I now feel more confident in setting boundaries.

This course was absolutely brilliant. I have used the info learned to make changed to my nutrition and lifestyle that in turn has had an impact on my work. I have shared useful bits of information with my team members too.
