Training focused very much on production with purchasing and stock, which does not necessarily apply to all companies. Exercises and topics should be representative of at least three different types of production in order to cover as many profiles as possible. Exercises and themes should be representative of at least 3 different types of production in order to cover as many profiles as possible.

High-quality content, even if most of it was unfortunately déjà vu for me. Training in small groups, very useful as it allows you to focus on concrete, personal cases. It would have been useful to know everyone's expectations beforehand so that the training could have been adapted in advance.
