excellent delivery
Every organization needs to get its employees to take this course. i have been able to write down action plans on settling well into work
Patronising and inappropriate
With the exception of section 9, the course is heavily focused on 'return to work' rather than 'return to workplace'. It makes the assumption that a return to the workplace will be better for the company and employee, which is certainly not the case in those industries where remote working has shown significant productivity and job satisfaction improvements. By all means do this course if you really are 'returning to work' after being laid off or furloughed, but as a 'return to office' training course it is very poor.
Excellent idea, poorly executed in parts
Good idea to give ideas and skills for how to adapt to returning to the workplace and some of the content is incredibly useful. However, the training content itself is lacking and is often disconnected with reality. I thought in particular the advice for 'Opposite action' while in theory good, when presented in this way came across as 'buck up and just get on with it' as opposed to helpful. I really enjoyed some of the suggestions (e.g. listen to a good song or podcast) but wonder how realistic doing many of the suggestions while at work (as suggested) actually would be in terms of time commitment. The thing I found worst about this training is that it was tested, especially after the core focus of the course was individual wellbeing and health. I would understand testing were the course regarding understanding of COVID guidelines and workplace policy/requirements. However, in the context of trying to reduce anxiety and impart skills to cope with returning to work, testing the individual (something many find anxiety inducing in itself) to complete the training required to work seems highly hypocritical.
Good tips for well being

Very Informative
This was a useful and informative course and I feel a bit better about returning to the office. Lots of ideas for a smooth return, with loads of helpful and practical ideas and suggestions.
Good to know

Makes you think
I think many underestimated the impact of lockdowns, this training module hopefully makes people realise that it's understandable to feel really awkward and anxious about coming back into the workplace after being away for so long.
good short course
useful tips on returning to work.
