I have worked with Fergus on the delivery of presentation skills training to postgraduate research students. Fergus has highly developed presentation skills and has the ability to explain difficult subjects in a clear, easily accessible and engaging manner. His communication skills, practical approach and down-to-earth manner all contribute to a positive and conducive training atmosphere and I would highly recommend Fergus for any role requiring such skills.
