Feedback for this course:
"I wasn't expecting to make such great connections with other course attendees. The accountability partnership sessions were really valuable."
"Doing the course has been very positive for myself but also for my programme. It has really pushed me to develop the programme and associated documents i.e. handbook and evaluation methods. These in turn are hopefully going to be interesting to our funders and helpful in making a decision about continued support."
