Really valuable course for me and quite easy to follow. I appreciate that it was run for me despite myself being the only student. Linda was informative, patient and helpful.

Course was excellent. Very good facilitator (Jonathon). He was very patient, knowledgeable and approachable. Course content was also good and relevant. 2 days in enough for the Dreamweaver course content to be covered.

great course - although a lot of information squeezed into 3 days. I will definitely need a refresh over the next few weeks/months. Otherwise, fantastic course and very valuable information.
