“Jonathan’s courses have been well received by both our foster carers and staff over the past seven years. The content of his courses is well thought out and relevant, supported by his commitment to keep abreast of the latest research and legislation. His delivery style encourages participation from the whole group.”

“Over the last nine years Jonathan Epps has delivered training which underlines ISP's philosophy of understanding all behaviour as a form of communication. The content of his courses is consistently viewed by foster carers as thought-provoking, practical and valuable in their fostering task as well as in everyday life. Our young people, foster carers and staff deserve the best - which is why Jonathan has been and remains a very regular fixture on our training calendar!”
Jayne Westcott, Operations Director/Registered Manager, Integrated Services Programme
“Jonathan’s courses have been received with great enthusiasm by both our foster carers and staff. Carers have said in their feedback that Jonathan is ‘A brilliant trainer. So much information. Stuff you can actually take home and put into action.’ Staff commented ‘I really enjoyed the style of the trainer. He kept me interested and involved. He has an engaging approach and a humorous style.”
Shirley Greenhalgh, Training Manager, Families for Children
“Foster carers speak very highly of Jonathan's courses and they appreciate his use of humour and his approachability. I am particularly impressed by the practical application of theory in his courses. Many carers have asked in their personal development plans for more courses to be run by him in the next academic year.”
