This course which is an level 5 award was very interesting and meaningful, especially for persons who adopt these practices every day due to their work exigencies. Given to the nature of my employment I found this course very helpful because it puts theories and learnings into practice and holds logical and structured learning. I have a solid academic background mixed with work experience in this field and I am very comfortable suggesting others to follow such a training programme for the suitable audience which are seeking to enhance their knowledge in these work-related professions. I would like to take the opportunity to thank FHRD to provide such learning programmes which are customed to the labour market needs whilst bearing in mind the students’ perspective.
