- A super day, so informative and relevant. The speakers were great and kept me engaged all day (no afternoon nap!)
- Great opportunity to learn more about feeding difficulties and explore different intervention approaches. Good practical suggestions to take away and apply within everyday practice.
- Very clear presentation – excellent content.
- Very practical and valued training. Both speakers were easy to listen to and very knowledgeable.
- Excellent training on a topic that is not often covered on courses. Lots of practical ideas, both for educating parents/other professionals and for direct work with individuals.
