Internal memorandum from a senior equity partner in Brabners Chaffe Street LLP (Liverpool)

“I do not know how many of you may have already tried this course but I have over the last week or so been using it and I would recommend it to you.

The course comes with an introductory module that explains how to maximise your use of the content which is very helpful. One of the advantages of the course is that it HAS been set-up using software which makes using the modules very flexible - by way of explanation, you can stop and start individual modules as you wish and it also allows you to go to specific elements of each module so that if you missed something the first time, you can re-visit that part.

The quality of presentation is very good and it is certainly more interesting than just plodding through text books or seminar notes!”

HERBERT SMITH’S USERS GAVE THE FOLLOWING FEEDBACK

Here are some quotes from the feedback given to Herbert Smith LLP by its users

“I thought it was an excellent way to be introduced to the changes being brought in by the Companies Act, one of the best e learning packages I have done.”

“ This course was extremely good and detailed. Being allowed to complete the course in one's own time is extremely helpful since it is not always possible to make it to set time lectures with the pressures of work.”

“It is convenient to be able to complete CPD at your own pace.”

“I thought the programme was excellent - a really well-packaged summary, arranged into suitably-sized chunks and well presented. I think it is a good idea to present education topics in this way since we can complete it in our own time, at our desks. I also found the system very efficient - I did not have any I.T. problems with it and I was able to print out selected slides as I went along when I thought they were useful.”

“The session was very helpful in that I could look back at the notes and review them at my own pace with the option of printing out the slides and notes to keep.”

“I thought the sessions were useful and were well thought out. Each individual session was not too lengthy and it helped to be able to break them up over a period of time. Performing the quizzes at the end of the session helped consolidate the session for me.”

“Found the course very useful and think it was aimed at a good level of detail to give a sound 'general grounding' on the new Companies Act. It was also very easy to use.”

“Very useful session as it dealt with the more practical points which are likely to come up in the near future, i.e. both questions from clients as to when exactly the different provisions are going to come into force, along with clearly explaining and commenting on how the provisions are going to affect companies now.”
