Testimonials from Students our Partners have Trained
Feedback both from our students and organisations we support is important from a training session because it helps to:
- Assess the effectiveness of the training. Feedback can help to identify what was learned, what was not learned, and what areas need to be improved. This information can be used to make changes to the training program so that it is more effective in the future.
- Identify the needs of the learners. Feedback can help to identify what the learners are interested in learning, what they are struggling with, and what they need more help with. This information can be used to tailor the training program to the specific needs of the learners.
- Motivate the learners. When learners feel that their feedback is valued, they are more likely to be motivated to learn. Feedback can also help to build relationships between the learners and the trainer, which can further motivate the learners.
- Improve the learning experience. Feedback can help to make the learning experience more enjoyable and engaging for the learners. This can lead to better learning outcomes.
Crime Scene Manager Course
I had a very great learning experience throughout the three weeks despite being an international participant! 🙂 Accommodation being just opposite class was also a great plus point since we are all pretty drained daily. Definitely not something I would get to experience on such a scale often, or maybe ever again, so I'm glad to have been there!

Challenged me in a Positive Way!
I really cannot fault how the course was run in any way and would recommend this course to any force. From the facilities to the staff everything went very well. I felt that it really puts into perspective your role going forward back into force as a crime scene manager. It definitely pushed and challenged me in a positive way. The practicals were very good and it gave you an opportunity to learn and challenge yourself in a safe environment. Although all the tutors pushed everyone I thought their support was amazing and really appreciated their efforts. Nothing was to much to ask and as a team we were supported from start to finish. Its not often you go on courses and actually want to stay in touch with the people you have met from staff to pupils.

Initial CSI Course
Excellent tutors and facilities at Cranfield. I was worried about photography before my course, having never really picked up a camera, but now, after the training, I feel that it is one of my strengths! Thank you to all involved for making the last 6 weeks a great learning experience.
