The course was excellent

The course was excellent, although it was very fast paced, especially for the Foundation course, which I didn't expect. Nick was excellent and covered all aspects

Nick was great

I thought the course itself was excellent. In hindsight, I feel the 5-day course would have suited me better. Nick was great and answered any questions and gave useful tips to retain information.

I truly enjoyed the course

I truly enjoyed the course. Our instructor was knowledgeable and patient with us. He was very kind to provide guidance in project management matters which may not be directly associated with the course material. Training material, especially the handout booklet and the progress diagram were top notch. The only recommendation I will make is going through a case study (i.e. a project) with actual management products, and how tailoring was applied, it would be immensely beneficial to solidify the course content. Overall, it was an amazing course! Thank you!
