I really enjoyed the training, I liked that it was very interactive, and it was a safe space to learn.

Thought the training was delivered very well and, in a setting, and approach that got everyone involved and thinking which was good!

Trainer presented a sometimes-difficult topic v well.

The training was very well presented, and we all had a broad experience.

The training was great, the time went very quickly.

The training was well delivered, and the trainer provided lots of examples of how people's unconscious biases have impacted on them and others.

I have learnt about EDI in more detail which will enable me to assist and guide others if required. The training was delivered well.

It was an exceptionally good training. Thank you very much.

Excellent trainer - would love for them to come back and do some more!

The training was very well presented, and we all had a broad experience.

I was a little apprehensive about the session wondering how it would be delivered and our participation, but it was delivered well the full day flew.

I was really impressed with the delivery and really enjoyed the examples given. I liked the group sessions as it engaged conversation and got us thinking.

I thought the training was delivered in a positive manner and was informative.

The trainer was very engaging and put everyone at ease form the start. I felt comfortable sharing my experiences during the training

The course provided me with more awareness on the subject than I had previously and thought the course was well presented and beneficial.

Our trainer was excellent! Thank you very much for your time.

The training was incredible! It encouraged me to reflect and be honest with myself and think how I can stand up for myself and others in the future.

Interactive training and collaborating with colleagues was helpful. The trainer was knowledgeable, friendly, and provided a lot of support and additional information throughout the session.

The trainer was excellent, truly knowledgeable. This online training should be made mandatory for all staff to complete, not just EDI leads.

There was a comfortable atmosphere, so people felt able to discuss openly and share their thoughts and experiences. The trainer was knowledgeable.

This was an excellent session, well-paced and informative.

The session went very well with good engagement from delegates. The contents presented were updated and with good visuals.

The trainer’s delivery style puts people at ease and builds immediate trust with the delegates, empowering them to open up and have insightful and valuable conversations and we learn a great deal from it.

The trainer was enthusiastic, and I found the course delivery particularly good. Her subject knowledge is clearly excellent, and she was able to address anything that was brought up.

The training was surprising and not as I expected it gave the attendees the platform to share experiences was highly effective and enabled the day to become a shared experience and potentially shared goals moving forward.

The training was honestly excellent. I thought I knew a lot, but the trainer signposted me to find out more. I now have a far better understanding of the issues arising.

The session was a great space to learn and reflect on our own understanding and biases. The trainer helped me feel safe to share what I wanted without feeling judged. Thank you.

This was the best training I have been on in many years, and I am a qualified trainer myself, so this is high praise!

I would highly recommend this course to other councils. It was incredibly useful, and a good mix of learning techniques were used to maintain engagement.

The training was excellent, extremely engaging and collaborative with varied methods used to hammer a point home i.e., quiz, discussion exercise etc. This made the subject matter more interesting, more insightful and as a result I got a lot more out of it.

I liked how it was quite different to normal training sessions, and although there was some presentation, a lot of it was conversation. We were all asked to share our experiences of racism and how we reacted, and then discussed how we may react in the future.

The trainer did very well, giving us all an incredibly positive insight into this remarkably interesting subject to make us a better version of ourselves. I gained good insight and appreciated the course very much.

The training was a great environment to learn and the trainer was so helpful with answering questions and explaining things in a clear way that addressed situations sensitively but meant you really thought about things you had experienced that you may not have given a second thought to before

The group work was a great way to hear experiences and share thoughts and understand how things can be challenged and how conversations constructed

Overall, an informative and enjoyable course, delivered to the correct level, and at the right pace, thank you.

Great course, the trainer really contextualised the content. Great subject knowledge and good mix of breakout sessions, discussions, and lessons.

The trainer effectively managed the class and ensured it was participatory. The training empowered all participants and awakened their consciousness.

Really good training course that I will use the learnings from moving forwards.

The session was super engaging. The trainer immediately made us all feel relaxed and got us involved and encouraged discussion rather than a one-sided talk (as many other types of training we have attended seem to be). This made the training personalised and provided useful takeaways.

Very engaging and enjoyable. I would highly recommend the course and the trainer was fantastic.

Brilliant, really enjoyed the day. Ellie was so engaging with everyone.

I thoroughly enjoyed the training and thought the trainer was excellent. The tone was friendly, yet formal and so sensible discussion was encouraged. I would recommend the training to all my colleagues and other organisations.

This was a valuable experience and was immensely helpful.

It was a packed day; overall learning experience was intense. I found having resources to read back again helpful.

I thought the videos were an effective way of demonstrating discrimination and explaining it from the point of view of the person with protected characteristics.

Excellent session, we will use Equality and Diversity UK again.

Loved the images, interactions, and videos - immensely powerful and thought-provoking. A great presenter, sharing experiences and examples really helped.
