While the training was very adequate in supplying the information needed, I feel like the execution at times fell short. There appears to have been little editing of parts of the course, leading to meandering sentences, repeated phrases and mixed-up concepts, which at times made the text quite hard to understand. At one point, the text kept mixing up the words "authoritarian" and "authoritative". During one of the post tests, one of the questions was so garbled that I straight up could not understand the desired answer. And at some points, it's honestly pretty clear that the text has been copied and pasted from another source, since it suddenly starts talking about "your" child, as if addressing a parent.
Apart from this, I feel that there were at times some rather lazy and/or borderline offensive assumptions with very little basis in the actual facts presented. As an example, (and I'm paraphrasing here, but this is all the meaning I could draw from the text), stating that the reason POC and low-income families often have higher rates of obesity might stem from inability to spend time outside due to fear of "gangs" and "drug-related violence", without ANY mention of lack of appropriate outside spaces in many low-income areas, lack of accessibility / money / time to prepare healthy food, or lack of healthcare? That is quite frankly embarrassing. In my personal opinion, that whole section needs work.
Again, the course contains a lot of extremely useful information, and has in fact helped me understand my work better and as a result given me more confidence. But since I did in fact pay for it, I do think it's fair for me to point out that these issues made it harder for me to learn and made the experience as a whole less pleasant.
Thank you!
