  • Novelet Coleman said:

    "I found this course of very fulfilling and educational. There was a good amount of theory, which helped to cement certain aspects of the course that I had not been 100% sure about. The course was very flexible and easy to use and understand. Overall a very good experience."

    "

    In contrast to classes attended regarding child protection, this e-learning course was more in-depth, accessible, and compulsory engagement required due to test . Attended classes can have a passive attendance quality as there is no test, so that you can see people passing the time on their mobile phones!!

    The e-learning course - the flow chart was useful for people like me (A&E junior nurse) as well as the case study. This will influence my practice.
