Passing tbe course

Wasn’t too long, informative and helped in an area not really strong on. Food was nice and the lecturer was very good.

The coursebook provided with the training contained a lot of information which appeared to be quite vast for a one day course. The instructor focused on the key elements of the contents and omitted some points which initially concerned me but ultimately the main points were covered and i exceeded my expectations in the final exam.
