"Val's delivery of this course is absolutely brilliant. She provides valuable information in an easy to understand, non-monotonous format with relatable anecdotes, so that one can actively engage with the learning process. Her ability to interweave some light hearted humour, also helps one digest some of the possible impacts that non-attendance for screening can result into. As a clinician, I have found this course very empowering in reinforcing continued provision of excellent quality, timely, efficient and safe care to patients. Thank you very much Val for sharing your knowledge".
