NHS Staff
I've also had the dubious honour of training NHS staff.

I have trained people all over the world in our software. I have trained IT people and I've trained medical people. Everywhere else, apart from the NHS, they got it or were willing to try to get it.

The group of NHS women I trained, however, were reluctant to learn and reluctant to change and were largely as thick as shit, except where being devious was concerned. Some of them managed to give me the impression they had made some progress and were very friendly to my face but stabbed me in the back when the course had finished.

The last hospital I worked in
We eventually came up with the idea of making everyone who had attended training signing a bit of paper detailing what they had been shown, making them put their initials next to each item in the course.

We had to do this because of the amount of people who got trained, wilfully didn't their job and then told their manager they weren't shown how to do it properly during training. When we got them back in the classroom, they could perform the tasks they "weren't shown how to do" faster than the trainer could show them. They just didn't want to do it but it was always considered a "training issue".
