A lack of teaching skill – ‘Look, it works for me, so you’ve done it wrong’ – but takes ages to take control of someone’s computer when they’re struggling, to help them understand why. Long monologues. Condescension – ‘Look, it’s a right headache, isn’t it, if you don’t know the code’. I’ve done some development work, so I had no trouble with the level required to understand the possibilities and exercises, but I think he lost other people rather than adapting to their needs. It’s a shame becaus

Too much lecturing by the trainer. It’s very difficult not to lose focus, even with just three students. Suggested improvement: share the students’ screens during the exercises and don’t go through the exercises out loud on your own.

Comprehensive training to get to grips with the tool for the first time. The trainer is very educational. The practical exercises after having seen a concept make it possible to apply the knowledge immediately. Overall, very satisfied.

Interesting and well-structured course, the only downside is that it's short enough to cover all the necessary points and have more practice time to tackle other related points such as integration with CI/CD pipelines.

Interesting content and teaching methods, but a 3-day course would be more appropriate.
