Course - PMP - Exam Preparation Training Course
I liked the break outs and the chance to work with my peers taking the course. I also liked the small group we had although I understand this is not the norm

Mariusz - EY GLOBAL SERVICES (POLAND) SP Z O O
Course - Professional Scrum Master II | PSM II (Scrum.org accredited training course)
I really enjoyed the mix of interactive exercises as well as normal powerpoint teaching slides. The exercises really broke up what is normally a classic teacher/student teaching method but there was a good balance of group exercises as well as powerpoint slides. I think the trainer was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about what he taught.

The trainer explained the premise and approach of SCRUM very well. I got what I wanted - I cemented the knowledge and as I don't often speak up - thanks to the friendly atmosphere and the trainer's approach - I became more active. Really great training!
