This was helpful.Do you have an demo of this course. Could you also tell me how old the course material is? Many Thanks Emma
Answer:Hi Emma, We do not have a demo of this course unfortunately. We do have tasters/demos of some of our current eLearning courses which should give you a good example. However I am unable to share url's in the answer. The course material is accredited to the current Managing Benefits 2nd edition (released September 2014), when a new version of the guidance is released we update our courses to reflect.
