Excellent training video, goes at a good pace and is clear, I do like the occasional question being asked during the video as it keeps you more alert. Thanks.

I don't work from home, but having watched this training scheme with all the hazards of home living I will shortly be moving in to a tent in the garden, with a fire extinguisher of course!

Please revise content to reflect working conditions arising from Covid-19. e.g. 'It can be helpful to arrange regular on-site meetings so that you don‚Äôt feel cut off, especially if you work mostly or exclusively from home.' [Not possible for last 12 months… please amend.] 'Regular face-to-face meetings can help you overcome any feelings of isolation and help you to keep in touch with the rest of the business.' [Not possible for last 12 months… please amend.]

Lots of common sense information which should be applied to general home life anyway, regardless of working from home. Reminds us to carry on doing the same H&S, well being and desk space screen checks at home in the same way you would be expected at work. Being at home doesn't mean throwing away the rule book on H&S! We don't need to relearn the tidy desk, posture and screen checks principles, just apply them at home.

The course was in depth and covered a lot of areas that we may not have thought about. However, it was very long. There was a constant need to click next, even on a clip that was only 18 seconds. Would have been better to have longer sections that did not require as much clicking.
