The trainer was extremely knowledgeable as would be expected. He taught in a way that was aimed all those in attendance, which I felt would have been quite difficult. People attending the course were from a Close Protection role and from Local Government organising events in Malmesbury, Wiltshire. The trainer was able to give examples relating to all our roles when carrying out Risk Assessments. Over all I really enjoyed the course. There were lots of practical examples, hand-outs and in depth explanations. I would recommend this course and trainer to others.
