Feedback

See what our participants say

The training is very thorough and is clear on the objectives required for safer recruitment and creating an inclusive safe environment. There are a lot of resources available to support this learning.

Trainers had excellent knowledge, both on content and the skills of how to deliver. The material and resources given are detailed and extensive.

The trainer was very positive and easy to listen to, I think the person delivering is one of the most important parts to the training.
