What I like most about these e-topics is that they are short, visual and the examples are easy to follow. I will use these as part of our full Read On delivery package to provide some pre-learning before a workshop and as activities during training. You could reduce workshop time using these as they definitely support learning. We already use 'The best ... ' guides and the teaching topics from Read On Publications so we will incorporate these into the package and tailor them to our business. Sara Morton, QIT Manager, Lifetime Training
This gives me information to show our assessors that there are other methods of learning available to them. Jo Bunn, Delivery Co-ordinator, St John Ambulance
The idea is excellent, and will save us a great deal of time planning and producing our own resources. Davina Snowball, Staff Trainer, St John Ambulance
