    In all honesty I thought this training was excellent.It was both about the right level and length.For somebody hopeless with IT like me the programme was so easy to navigate and it was great to be able to exit and go back without the worry of earlier screenings being lost.I don’t give 5 star reviews lightly but I felt this package certainly deserved it!
