Past attendee feedback
“This was an excellent forum. Full of practical and applicable information”
Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust, Advanced Practical Application: IG for Clinical Research and Databases, March 2022
“I found this session extremely useful as the team provided a lot of practical examples for research undertaken at the NHS. Highly recommended for anyone involved in the setup/delivery of clinical trials and especially dealing with Sponsored studies”
University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS Trust, Advanced Practical Application: IG for Clinical Research and Databases, March 2022
“Excellent all round, really professional, efficient and friendly team, thank you.”
Cardiff & Vale University Local Health Board, Advanced Practical Application: IG for Clinical Research and Databases, March 2022
“This is the first online course I've done since the very start of the pandemic and I'm impressed at how smoothly it ran and how professional the delivery was”
Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust, IG for Clinical Research Databases and Trials 2021
“The day was incredibly informative and worth attending. Having a greater depth of knowledge of the wealth of legislation associated with IG (beyond the basics we are all used to via mandatory training etc.) is definitely relevant to my role and actually the course has served as a prompt to vet the research documents to a greater extent"
Psychological Resilience Skills II – Embedding your Techniques Webinar, Thursday 17th December 2020
“Amy and Joe are expert presenters who provided an in-depth and comprehensive coverage of a complex subject. The presentations were very clearly communicated. Plenty of opportunity to ask questions”

But don't take our word for it. We have had some excellent feedback from attendees to the forums that have been held to date:
"Forum was managed extremely well, and very professional"
IAPT National Networking Online Forum 2021 - 21st January 2021
“I am sure like everyone else I was apprehensive with going online, not sure how we could network, the ability for all participant's to participate and the quality of the presentations - all my fears were diminished this turned in to be a great day, networking, leading and sharing still occurred and links still formed. The presentations were excellent and the quality of the forum and set up great and so easy to follow and timing excellent.”
Reduce Paediatric Emergency Attendance Online Conference – 8th October 2020
“The conference has been far more engaging than in a conference centre. This I think is because of the ability to participate in chat throughout and the use of the breakout discussions.” “Excellent day! Organisation was great - loved the break out rooms for chat. Virtual chat added another really useful way to interact during the day, which isn't available to us at the physical conferences.”
Leading Change in Clinical Coding Online Conference - 11th September 2020
"Very informative, lots of opportunity for discussions and very well organised virtually"
Providing Support for Children on Long Term Ventilation - Tuesday 9th March 2021
"I enjoyed the group chats networking listening to others experiences, I also like that there was a lead on each group so the chats were influenced and no awkward silences that can occur on web meets. I thought the larger talks were really good and easy to listen to."
Modernising Outpatient Services Online Conference – 16th September 2020
“This is my first experience of an online conference and thoroughly enjoyed it. Wasn't sure what to expect. Would recommend to colleagues to attend future events” “This has to be the best online conference I have been to, I really enjoyed the breakout rooms.”
