La formatrice n’est pas à l’origine des slides, ce qui doit rendre pour elle l’exercice difficile. IL y a à plusieurs reprises des remises en cause du support, et parfois les sujets ne peuvent être abordés dans leur entièreté. Le support est très complet, mais la mise en page est datée.

Dans le catalogue, le public concernée était Contrôleurs de gestion, responsables administratifs et financiers, responsables comptables, mais je pense que cette formation est plutôt destinée a des collaborateur qui découvrent le budget, c’est une formation pour débutants, je m’attendais à du contenu plus poussé.
