Marilyn’s
knowledge, experience and supportive manner helped participants to
develop themselves, and their viewpoint during the training session.
Her style and approach allowed information and good practice to be
shared in a positive environment fully involving all participants, and
by the end of the session they were motivated and keen to put their
learning into action.
