It was easy to follow and very quick process . It was not a daunting process and l kept receiving prompts to say that l had an outstanding task which was really helpful .
The reference questions were clear and concise, not too wordy or taxing. A delight to be able to complete this reference speedily with room to add a personal reflection.
Nice and easy to use. I sometimes have difficulty using online platforms to sort out applications etc but I had no issues with this one
