What our Alumni said about this course first edition

It is very, very useful and it is really an eye opener for me! I’ve learned so many new things and I have come to realise that – it is more comfortable for me to speak in front of a live audience, than to do a recording. So, that’s a new learning for me, because without this course I never realised that’s my case
Role playing. I really felt how our hematologist felt. This exercise will surely help me with my future conversation with our hematologist. 
This is the first time I am receiving such a training. Being evaluated in terms of seeing my own level motivated me a lot. As of now, I can say that it has completely met my expectations. Thank you to everyone who contributed.
