What our learners say

I liked the fact that we were able to meet other learners accessing the same training and were able to share ideas and experiences with one another. I liked that the workshops were scheduled in advance and that we could access these in the day time. I also liked the fact that the workshops included lots of interactive activities such as Mentimeter and Kahoot! They really make you engage in the sessions and help to improve your knowledge and understanding. I’ve enjoyed meeting new people and learning lots of new skills. Assessing is something I had very little experienced in before and I would highly recommend the Panda training to future learners

I was contacted by the company and everything was sent out and explained well. Excellent delivery. The course tutor was very engaging and informative and was Face to face would be nice but it was convenient online. I enjoyed the content. It fully supported everything I have recently learnt with my teacher qualification. It has boosted my confidence in formative assessment.
Course Delegate November 2021
I appreciated the welcome pack that was distributed prior to the start of the course. It prepared me for what was to come. I felt that I was able to participate in discussions freely and felt that my input was recognised and valued. The monthly meetings kept me on track. I enjoyed receiving regular feedback on my working practice which increased my confidence in delivering the assessment process.
