Hear what our previous delegates have to say...
“The 2023 R3 Insolvency Boot Camp was a great opportunity to refresh my knowledge of the important aspects of our insolvency profession. The presenters were clear, knowledgeable, and always helpful answering our questions. I look forward to future events, thank you R3.”
“It has been fabulous! I was feeling quite jaded having been out of the profession for a couple of years - coming back for a refresh with the bootcamp - just wonderful! Being able to use the resources - the course slides, video playback and just access to the training platform - the balance is absolutely right!”
“Excellent course with experienced presenters. The 'go-to' provider of training in the Insolvency and Restructuring world.”
“Very good course to walk you through some of the areas of insolvency. There is a good balance between the speakers explaining the topic and then allowing participants to discuss the topics in application to a case study. The notes/slides were excellent and a good way to supplement the notes taken in sessions.”
“As a Senior Administrator, I found the course brilliant. Some chapters were a great refresher and others a good step to building my knowledge. The other participants had a vast range of experience, so it was interesting to discuss, and both learn and pass on thoughts of my own.”
