Reviews for Laura’s courses

Laura was very good, easy to understand and answered any questions

Data Integrity and Document Management

Overall, I enjoyed the course and got a lot of worthwhile knowledge and ideas for improving the SOP system I work with currently. Laura was very knowledgeable and led the course well. She was accommodating for delegates of varying levels of experience. I enjoyed the mind mapping and flow chart exercises.

Best Practice for Writing Effective SOPs

Very good. Also the form of how it was conducted with the exercises

24 Nov 2025

Root Cause Analysis and Critical Thinking

Very well organised, to time, good content, and well delivered. [Speaker] was engaging and delivered a really good balance between lecture content and breakout sessions. I had already done project management training and was hoping to get more of an insight into practical implementation of techniques. The course was very good at this, with multiple breakout sessions to practice this implementation.

Project Management for Pharma Professionals

I found the course extremely valuable, particularly in learning techniques that will help me strengthen the structure of my role, with a strong focus on effective communication and leadership. The practical exercises were especially useful for identifying program weaknesses, capturing them clearly, and building proactive mitigation strategies, all of which will support better planning and smoother project execution moving forward. I will definitively apply these tools in my day-to-day work.

- The presentations from the guests

The Pharma Mini MBA

I feel incredibly blessed to have been on this webinar with such nice colleagues from other companies. There was an incredible nice tone throughout the whole webinar which was great and made the sessions more enjoyable. I have been thinking about pursuing an MBA for quite some time now and was looking for a bit of insight. I have an idea now following this webinar. There was no doubt that speaker has incredible amount of knowledge and was keen to share examples from own carrier. Really nice with the breakout sessions allowing one to use and apply some learnings.
