Feedback from previous cohorts:
It was fantastic to meet like minded women in a similar situation as myself, we had lots in common and a huge variety of individual strengths and knowledge in particular areas. It was a very positive experience, well worth the time commitment of participating
Loved the course, a great group of women and course facilitators
This was a fantastic course, it was great to meet and learn from not only the other participants but also the course facilitators who were fab
I have come away from the course feeling more confident and have made a new circle of like minded friends
I feel the course made me evaluate my thought processes and also made me aware that other people probably feeling the same way
One thing I will take away is how beneficial it is to learn from such a diverse group
Very professional with an incredible amount of information to take away. I think I could do it again and still gain from it.
Fantastic model of delivery including Zoom to reach everyone everywhere
I just think it was absolutely excellent!
