3 / 5
On a one-day course, the morning part is too long for the interest it represents in understanding the RGAA. The afternoon was better calibrated. The course would benefit from remaining focused on the practical cases seen in the afternoon. Some of the videos were too long, and the maps of what to do and what not to do were interesting and would have deserved more time and perspective.
