The presentation was lively, but not structured enough, and the exercises were not easy to follow.

A large part of the course was devoted to practical exercises, with access to the 'sandbox' to familiarise participants with the tool's functions. Feedback from the participants enabled them to come face-to-face with problems encountered in the field and to discuss them together.

More practical exercises and do-it-yourself handling would have been a plus.
