The course was well structured with a good flow of topics which led onto the next topic. I liked the interactive part, working with the other attendees. Thank you for delivering a course with NO power point slides. It was really refreshing. The trainer's presentation was excellent! Informative, engaging, very knowledgeable and the real life examples were excellent.
