It was a good opportunity to learn - very insightful. I will use it in my personal life to build a foundation for my future also to help family & friends.

The training was very, very good, I learned a lot about all of the organisations that are there for free to sign post parents to. As part of my role I be using the resource on a day to day basis for. I also will be spreading the word to my friends and family about the online tools.
