The training isn’t suited to an online format (two days is too long to stay focused when learning remotely). The first day is devoted to various concepts and background information… too long for theory. We need to get to the practical aspects more quickly. Too much repetition during the training: repeating things once or twice at most to ensure proper understanding is fine, but any more than that is a waste of time. Use digital tools for the training, such as a whiteboard with virtual post-it no
