For sensitive or personal matters that you do not wish to post in the discussion forums, please email the trainer (for contact details, see [Trainer](/matlab/welcome/overview/about-the-trainer.md)). We will do our best to respond to all emails in a timely fashion; however, please bear in mind that there may be a large number of students undertaking this training.
