The group was very heterogeneous in terms of business lines and CSR expertise/knowledge, which made for interesting discussions but sometimes made the practical exercises more problematicBalance may need to be reviewed between day 1 (more theoretical and denser) and day 2 (exercises difficult to adapt to a heterogeneous group). The facilitator was an expert in her field

Difficult for in-house training, but the first day was theoretical and of little interest to an SME (what about the part on accronyms?) The second day, dedicated solely to practical cases, was perfect. The trainer was very attentive and educational. Distance learning courses are not the easiest, but thanks to him for his good humour.

Some of the content did not concern my company, so it is difficult to judge.
