What I would highlight: What I preferred most about the course was the snappy tips and a few essentials that will spare my time. Little gathering, so could concentrate on us and zones we wished to see a greater amount of. Contented with the manuals we got to bring home and invigorate what we have learnt.
What could be improved: Nothing bad.
