Please state what was good about the course

Went into depth about knowing what information needs to be included into the assessment which was very helpful

7/30/2026 03:40 PM 

Duncan was extremely interactive and knowledgeable

7/30/2026 02:32 PM 

Very informative and enjoyed being put into groups to try sections ourselves. Was also good to see how other services do things and how I can strengthen the things I find more difficult.

Clear logical approach identifying best practice principles and offering helpful advice/tools to support the process.

7/6/2026 08:56 PM

Great engagement and encouragement to engage from Duncan. Enabled lots of themes to be explored and helped me to think about the details that needed adding when completing a PDAT.

7/6/2026 02:03 PM

Content was excellent so was the delivery

6/23/2026 08:26 PM

it has made it clearer about what the assessments should contain and how to avoid duplicating parts of it

6/19/2026 02:41 PM

Duncan’s knowledge. Completion of the tool with us. The guidance notes to avoid duplication. The materials provided.

I really enjoyed the content of the Course; I found it really useful to explore different ways we all interpret the questions asked on the PDAT and drill down into what is best to go where. This Course will no doubt improve the quality of my assessments and they will be less repetitive but I think in the short term it will take me longer to complete as it’s a new process to go through when completing the assessment

6/18/2026 03:48 PM

All the content was good. I would have just prefered in in person. Duncan did the asset training in person and this in my opinion was better and more interactive

6/18/2026 03:20 PM

It was helpful to have a trainer that was very knowledgeable & experienced in assetplus. It was helpful working through a case study to see what information goes where and it is helpful having the crib sheet to complete as an aid as we go thorugh Assetplus. In practice I have continually felt I was going backwards and forwards trying to remember information so this sheet should reduce the need for me to do this.

Better understanding of the assessment and purpose of all areas, this was taught well. I would qualify ‘as good’ because sometimes it was tricky to go between the case study and action list online. The breakout groups were a great way of learning and embedding knowledge. The teacher was pleasant and treated participants with warmth and respect.

5/22/2026 03:21 PM

Helpful to got through sections relating to case study

5/21/2026 05:25 PM

Duncan was really good at explaining what information should go into each section, and how to avoid duplication of information/work.

5/15/2026 09:14 AM

Duncan clearly knows what he’s talking about and was able to explain all parts of the asset plus in a way that was easy to understand and helps massively with future report writing.

5/14/2026 03:13 PM

Interactive and well paced

4/27/2026 09:20 AM

Duncan was very knowledgeable around the subject and gave lots of advice and support throughout. There was no pressure for people to contribute and could do this at their own leisure. Breaks were also well spaced and gave people time to get a coffee and have a good amount of break from the screen.

4/24/2026 01:40 PM

The flow of the assessment, being specific throughout the assessment and answering the question, takining into account

4/16/2026 04:56 PM

Duncan did a really good job of providing a thorough explanation to us, and conveyed information across well.

3/6/2026 10:10 AM

Content, presentation, explanations

3/5/2026 03:57 PM

The delivery style of the trainer, clarity of information and how much to put, the interaction with other YJS’ colleagues across the country and sharing good practice.

2/17/2026 02:02 PM

very engaging, – interesting case study

2/17/2026 09:13 AM

It’s been very stimulating and informative training. It’s really helped me get in the zone for my new role with YJS.

2/13/2026 05:45 PM

Engaging, lots of opportunities for discussions and break out rooms

2/13/2026 12:13 PM

Duncan is a good facilitator, the half days are also good in terms of balancing work commitments and maintaining concentration.

2/4/2026 03:28 PM

The collaborative discussions with the trainer and attendees. You had the space to talk about your own practise, and work together to create strategies for improvement.

2/2/2026 02:25 PM

The course was very detailed and the trainer Duncan explained things really well, particularly as I am dyslexic and found he was able to get all points across clearly

1/22/2026 04:37 PM

It was very informative, and clarified what was expected in each section. i found the suggested way to complete an asset very helpfull

1/15/2026 02:41 PM

It was very detailed.

1/15/2026 02:40 PM

Interaction style encouraged better learning – i.e encouraged to come to our own conclusions .

1/15/2026 01:15 PM

informative and helpful in the process of completion of an assettplus assessment – i.e sequencing

1/15/2026 12:50 PM

The group interactive elements and exercises helped greatly with ensuring I’d interpreted and understood correctly what needed to be considered; also with helping to embed my learning.
