Riyadh RCV Day 5

Not a vast amount to report - we finished the slides, they had a go at mock paper 2 Qs 5-8 and seemed to be doing better. Hats off to them for being able to do this is in a foreign language at all!

I have been inspired to learn at least a few words of Arabic before I leave...

They did the real exam in the afternoon and that, as they say, was that.

Next course is a 1-day Service Management Awareness (SMA) course, which can be a bit dry, as it's mostly me talking and them listening. That'll be Saturday. Thursday and Friday are days off!


WAIT! I almost forgot!! The office has asked me to consider a long weekend training in Sweden (which is fine) and a week training in the Democratic Republic of Congo! How's THAT for exotic?

Foreign & Commonwealth office have a few things to say about it, but with Someone's consideration I think it worth going for this short trip.
