Excellent training. I really enjoyed it
The course was really enjoyable. Information was presented very clearly, there was enough time for questions and participant interactions. The tutor was very knowledgeable and it was paced well. Some guidance on gathering psychiatric and developmental history and non medication treatment recommendations and some direction with using the qualification in private practice would be beneficial but I haven't had chance to explore the network materials. The course could easily be spread across 2 days but I'm pleased to have qualified and look forward to using the network resources, many thanks.
