Benefits Management ♥

Overall the training was great. Structure was clear and easy to follow. I liked having the first day as a theory day and the second as a more interactive day. The trainer was very engaging. Open and honest. Happy to answer any questions. Very knowledgeable and this was really beneficial when applying theory to our not so traditional organisation.
