Our Policy
Collection of Feedback
You’ll have several formal opportunities to share your experience with us:
Post-Course and Assessment Surveys You’ll receive an online survey link about an hour after each course delivery, clinic, or practical assessment. Your responses go straight into our Student Management System (SMS) and are handled in line with our Privacy and Data Management Policy.
Quarterly Student Surveys These are shared via email and the student Facebook forum. They let you provide deeper reflections about your training journey as a whole.
Data Management and Your Rights
We respect your privacy and rights when handling your feedback:
Your responses are stored securely in the SMS and only viewed by authorised staff
We use your feedback to drive quality improvements, always in line with our Privacy and Data Management Policy
If you'd prefer that your comments aren't shared publicly (like on social media), just let us know
To help us follow up effectively, you’ll need to include your name when submitting a survey
Analysis and Reporting
We’ll carefully review what you share:
Feedback is analysed for common themes, standout comments, and areas needing attention
Positive highlights and critical issues are summarised and shared internally with our team
Summary results are also shared with students—usually in anonymised form via our student Facebook forum
Actioning Feedback
Your suggestions don’t just sit in a folder—we act on them.
All trends and improvement ideas are logged in the Internal Continuous Improvement Register
Our management team reviews the register regularly to prioritise and implement meaningful changes, such as:
Refining course materials or assessments
Improving teaching methods or physical facilities
Enhancing communication or schedules
Follow-Up and Communication
If you provide feedback, we’ll keep you in the loop:
You’ll receive acknowledgment (where appropriate)
We’ll let you know what actions are taken based on your input
If your feedback is especially positive and could be helpful to others, we might share it publicly—with your permission, of course
Feedback in Continuous Improvement Cycles
We see feedback as an ongoing part of growth:
Specific comments about venues or educators are shared respectfully with the right people
Trends inform long-term planning and guide updates to internal policies, systems, and training delivery
