Feedback from UCC Staff Members:
Thank you very much for an excellent workshop on Tuesday last from which I derived great benefit! I have developed a new network from this workshop and I have had a very fruitful conversation with my line manager in relation to opportunities for developing my role.
Thank you for the very useful session which I feel had a very positive impact and will assist me in my day to day work.
