Richard was engaging, well-informed, delivered the training at a good pace and on top of all of that had a great sense of humour. Really, really glad I attended this training as I learned a lot and had a good time too.

I'd mostly just cut down on the Skype training, but I'm not sure everyone would say the same as there may well have been people who haven't used it much.

Thanks for a great session!

The course was 365 and the trainer covered all the topics. I was most interested in one drive. would have preferred more time on one drive for business.

I wanted to mention how engaging Richard was as a trainer, he kept the content relevant, interesting and engaging throughout the session - very impressed. Richard's knowledge of the topic area was also absolutely brilliant and his insight into 365 has definitely improved people's knowledge and understanding and will definitely benefit the company going forward.

Thank you!
