I think it would be ideal to be able to retake the test again (with different questions) without having to redo the whole course within a few days, or hours so we can review weaker areas after the test is complete without sitting through everything or rechecking mid-test. Additionally, this would allow test takers to gain a certificate that states 100%. Even though 80% is a pass it feels demoralizing to have it displayed so large on the certificate.

I think it was too long and really just discussed lots of common sense approaches. This would be good if you are brand new to a school but if you are experienced and been on many trips you will already be familiar with the procedures and techniques. I was hoping for more specific instruction in terms of say writing a detailed risk assessment .
The course content needs updating after Brexit as non EU pupils from overseas with a visa to study in the UK cannot travel to mainland Europe using the British Council's List of Travellers. eg pupils from Kenya at boarding school in the UK need separate visa to visit Spain.
covers key ideas, but more specific examples would be good. Or more scenarios given as you are going along where we pick key options. For example, with remote supervision some examples could be given of a good approach, vs a 'too remote' approach.
If we could do a pre-test to check prior knowledge this was be a better use of my time. Much of this was irrelevant to my organisation of KS1 trips.
Could of been shortened. Much was not relevant to the context I teach in (private 6th form college) I didn't like the emphasis at the beginning about location.
As an experienced trip planner there was little, to no new information for me. Some of it was fairly condescending...e.g. why a coach might be useful! It was clearly presented and in manageable chunks. Once completing I felt confident to do the test.
Would have been better to do primary and secondary separately,
Too many time consuming videos.
