Acceptability and training
Almost all were happy with the package as delivered. Quality assurance assessment on day 1 was appreciated as was the general support from the team ‘I wanted that there was somebody there on the first day actually because it was quite good to find out how… whether I was actually doing it [correctly]…’ L05Staff interviewees regarded the training as adequate and the manual as comprehensive.The manual ‘was very good because it took you through every single section very, very clearly.’ (N09)‘….it’s quite thorough and really, really detailed.’ L03Some would have liked more training on; practical facilitation and/or subjects with which they were not familiar, for example, mindfulness or teaching posture. Most put in extra unpaid time to read around relevant subjects and to practice their delivery, and most were happy doing this.
