Very comprehensive and informative.

Learnt a lot from this course.

The course was not too long, had useful advise and held my full attention. I try and be conscious of my posture anyway but its good to know the specifics of what I should be aware of.

Where to start, this was one of the more painful training sessions I've had to do, and considering the subject matter it shouldn't have been so hard as it is directly related to my everyday work life. First of all, the positives - the content was great and very informative, and very practical information given that I can apply to my work environment immediately. I thought it was a good idea to provide the text as well, and subtitles, so we didn't have to sit and listen through the videos, which are always too slow for my attention span. I was mistaken. It was more annoying to read the text then sit for minutes while someone slowly talks it through. No way to speed up or click to the next slide when I had read/watched the content. There was so much clicking in this training, I think it could give RSI. Some videos were seconds long, and some were minutes, so I couldn't get into a regular cadence of clicking/watching. I kept trying to move my hand away from the mouse to rest it but then I'd reach the end of a short segment and have to reach again, which ended up being much more lengthy. By the time I got to the assessment I was exhausted. I did the training over days and weeks as I got frustrated with the software. I would have appreciated a slideshow, or one very long video that I could pause and restart if I felt tired, rather than forcing me to go at its pace when it's a video. I think I may need to rest a few days before attempting the other sessions.

To the point and easy to follow, encouraged best practice.

Entirely patronising, focusing on how to get you working at "maximum productivity", and fails to take into account any disabilities or medical conditions that may require adaptations to this advice. As I was made to take it before being granted an occupational health referral because of a medical condition that cannot be changed by just sitting more effectively, it was a waste of 45 minutes of my time and I just felt patronised.
