  Excellent
29 May 2007: Graham really engaged with the group, encouraging and developing our skills in presentation and training others to present. At the start of the 9 week course we had a number of people who were very uncertain as to their abilities and had very little confidence. By the time the course had ended, we had 12 people with the potential to present and help others develop their presentation skills. As an organisation we will be looking for future opportunities to work with Graham as we develop our training network.
