This was excellent training and I benefited from meeting other practitioners and learning how other areas work and what resources they have available.Face to face course delegate
I used the webchat service and was extremely impressed. The adviser who attended my chat was extremely helpful and informative, I will not hesitate to recommend and use this service again should I need to. Thank you again, brilliant service.Webchat user
Succinct, thorough and pertinent expert advice. Really brilliant. I couldn't find it in books. thanks so much - you've prevented someone becoming homeless.Housing Second Tier Service referrer
This is the first time I have done a webinar and was surprised at how easy it was to join in, information was clear and well delivered. Having 2 trainers worked well so did the quizzes. Slides are well written; they are easy to follow, concise, logical and will be a useful reference guide in the future.Webinar delegate
