57、relyModule 81st MayDear Mr Le FeverFollowing the recent experiences of two of my staff with your training company, I have decided to send you some feedback based on their comments.On the 25th April, they attended a two-day computer course in creating PowerPoint presentations. However, on the first d
58、ay the trainer arrived 30 minutes late, which was followed by a further delay due to a room change. As a result of this nearly 90 minutes was missed. In addition to this, my staff inform me that the approach of the trainer was to let participants discover solutions to problems rather than being told
59、 what to do.Despite having been very satisfied with your services in the past I may have to reconsider sending staff in the future. I would be grateful to hear any comments you have to make either by phone or in writing.I look forward to hearing from you.Yours sincerelyMrs A Heneage Human Resources
