Testimonials
Grace Okello
Completing my Responsible Adult Course was a positive experience.
The layout of the course was easy to navigate and the course modules were well written.
For instance I particularly enjoyed the prompts to take breaks, and the activities suggested for the breaks.
Overall, I think the Responsible Adult Course offered through Head Start Online School is a great course.
