Do you have any other comments, questions or concerns?
Information was basic. Waiting for a "magic" moment or a WOW factor relating to retention. Presenter could put a little fun or even an effort to smile during the presentation. Would be helpful to indicate target audience as this was too basic for advanced HR professional.

Do you have any other comments, questions or concerns?
I've done a lot of Aurora trainings now and ALL of them were with white facilitators, the lack of diversity in your roster is very disappointing. There is zero intersectional perspective or cultural considerations - a BIG no for HR work.
