This e-Learning course was extremely informative and useful. It helps with understanding what is important to include when carrying out Staff Appraisals and would highly recommend for new and existing supervisors, line managers and above.

The course is mainly audio visual with an instructor walking and talking you through the modules. The only interactivity was the 20 question quiz at the end, which I scored 80% which i'm happy about as it was relatively technical in it's questioning.

Initially the course didn't require much technical knowledge however the course does get more technical as it progresses. I found the most technical aspect was the setting up of blockchains using BaaS (Blockchain as a Service) using AWS, Corda and Quorum.. which prior to the course I didn't understand but now I know it exists and what it is.

The course discusses the difference between 'permission' and 'permissionless' blockchains which essentially are private and non-private blockchains - the latter being for example Ethereum and Cardano etc and the former being Hyperledger, Corda, Quorum and Ripple. I also learned Ripple is not actually a blockchain and it's the only one out of these four that does have a token (XRP). Prior to attending the course I had no understanding of which blockchain tech would be used for permissionless and permission based solutions. I also now understand that a company considering deploying a blockchain needs to consider whether or not they require a token.. the likes of Hyperledger and Corda do not have token offering.

If you're a blockchain pre-sales engineer the course is perfect.. but as a crypto investor the tech aspect was a little more than I needed but was very interesting and has given me a much better understanding of blockchains and 'significantly' increased by crypto vocabulary' - my partner will be delighted 🤣
