I’ve just completed the construction module and it’s very good. It gives a good insight for non-construction professionals as to how the construction industry is divided and specifically where R&D is and isn’t likely to exist.It’s very informative and the format is excellent in terms of engaging you and keeping you interested. I’m finding it an excellent resource and am looking forward to completing more modules.

The R&D Community provides an excellent way to train the team in a consistent manner and to a high standard. The video content makes it highly interactive and easy to follow. I have been searching for a long time for a training course like this and I am so happy to finally have found something so good.

Would highly recommend to everyone working in R&D no matter your role. Being on the commercial side of things it is imperative that you know who you are selling to and what qualifies. Businesses you are selling to, and work for, are at risk if you do not understand the fundamentals.
