If you are deciding which service provider to choose for your IAP2 courses, look no further! Delaney & Associates have created an extensive course that is interactive, fun, and informative. It’s not an easy job to keep the attention and focus of adults who have busy lives when teaching online, but Delaney did an excellent job with timely breaks, discussion periods, and real-life examples to support the course material. Also, they sent the training manuals directly to my home and kept up frequent communication prior to classes starting. I have learned a great deal from this course and Richard is a wealth of knowledge. 10/10 stars.
Richard Delaney and Naomi Devine did a great job walking us through each effective public participation technique, highlighting pros and cons, and providing real-life examples. The training was well organized, and I feel equipped to prepare for a positive public engagement in the future.
Hindsight is 20-20! Take the training before you embark on a challenging project. It is always more challenging to fix mistakes after the fact. Lots of good information to help with any level of public participation.
