“Overall, the course was ok. It did not focus on the Civil Service as much as I thought it would, and spent a lot of time going over creating a CV from scratch, which I was already confident with. There was only cursory coverage of how to use the Civil Service behaviours in applications. However, the tutor's enthusiasm was tangible, and there were some excellent moments included. For instance, the talk and Q and A with the civil servant was fantastic, and I really enjoyed the interview skills.”

“Hi I a mr Richard Leslie I have strive training 3 stars because my education of warehouse and logistics was not that good so this course was very educational for me I hope that I had passed the test and qualified for Waitrose warehouse job vacancies.”
“It seems the training is geared fundamentally towards the Work Coach position at DWP.
The instructions for answering the questions in each section could be clearer.”

“I have to say that the training was well accomplished. Through this device I've been able to create my CV write my cover letter fill in a mock application form to satisfaction”
“Although some aspects of the Civil service course was interesting I don't personally feel that I learnt that much as the answers to various questions were already provided. So I was copying & pasting answers throughout.”
“The training was well-managed but I found the content quite rudimentary, so I'm not sure how valuable it was for me. However for someone who has been out of work for a long while, or has just left school, it might be really valuable.”

“I am unsure of the course objectives and outcomes but I felt that it was perhaps a little too basic in areas. I would have liked more depth on the civil service assessment protocols and time on answering more questions of different sorts for interviews. Steve Carr was a decent chap and patiently supported some who did seem to need more support than others who just got on with it. I feel the course could be designed with graduates having a separate group so that their aspirations and targets are reflected in the learning.”
“It was good, digestible course but didn't respond well to my learning style and more personal aspects I struggle with in educational settings that can't really be accommodated for or helped via calls. So it was more a personal matter than anything bad regarding the teacher or the course itself.
Easy to do and even if you missed something, it was easy to catch up and everything was taught well”
“I found it quite hard to hear the tutor, so had to sit right in front of her. My laptop screen was very dark. I swapped it for one at a vacant desk, and it was fine. The pupil next to me had a laptop where the " was in the @ key and vice versa.
The sun through the window was a problem, as one of the blinds had fallen off.
I felt the course only really needed to be two days max. It was like a two day course stretched out to five. There was a lot of time sitting and doing very little.
I did, however, gian some useful information that will help me in my search for employment.”
“Good training, however I feel like I already knew most of the things taught. I think the training should be more in depthn and give people higher level of insight so they can actually have an edge when applying for an application.”
“The course was OK but I anticipated much more in the beginning. The content delived was not much but the exercises were a lot. I wanted to learn more about other forms of digital communication like emails, chats.”
