"Really loved the interactivity and breakout sessions. Like how we changed groups each time as I got to speak to people I had not worked with before."
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"Engaging content and delivery by the trainer, who also had some fascinating real-life insights that added real truth to the value of the training. The structure of the content gave a clear sense of progression through a project and what considerations you need to make along the way."
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"Our trainer was engaging and knowledgeable. She made it a fun session with lots of analogies which helped to visualise the concepts and interactive exercises. I thought it was a great introduction to project management: much better than other courses I've been on."

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
-
"Our trainer knew her stuff and presented in an interesting and informative way. The slides were easy to understand yet covered the topics well - there was a massive amount of information to be covered in 3 hours. The format of the session was good in that there were breakout rooms and we were with different people all the time The presenter got us all to join in (in a nice way), which was good because that always makes it more interesting."
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
-
"Very informative, and just the correct length of course to hold interest. I haven't officially managed a project, so some of the terminology new to me, but I have a few points to take away. The six thinking hats by Edward Bono, this will be helpful in understanding the team. It was great to get an overall understanding of overseeing a project from start to completion."
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
-
"The session did very well at condensing a detailed project management presentation into 3 hours! The critical path activity and planning templates were both very useful, and the presenter was very clear and engaging."
