Terrible
Terrible course! The course has not been written very well at all – some of it doesn’t even make sense – especially the questions at the end. Even though this is a UK site and the contact details are in London, the course is for American goat framing so a lot of the content is irrelevant to U.K. laws. In some parts cows are talked about instead of goats. This has not been written by someone who knows how to write a course, some parts even contradict themselves. Certainly not what was advertised and definitely not worth the money.
