The tools and teaching methods were absolutely top-notch! It was just that the facilitator tended to go on at length about personal, and sometimes private, matters; whilst this certainly created a friendly atmosphere, at times it perhaps went on a bit too long or became a bit too personal.

A good course… on project management, not multi-project management. Sandrine gets a bit sidetracked by unnecessary, personal anecdotes.

A good revision module on project management: to manage several projects effectively, it is essential to know how to manage a single project properly. The topic of multi-project management could be explored in greater depth (even if this means reducing the time devoted to project management), particularly with regard to personal organisation or specific tools and methods.

Thank you for this enriching course and a pleasant and friendly trainer. It enabled me to understand the general concepts of project management, but I would have liked to have had the course materials during the exercises.

I'm completely satisfied and I'm going to be able to apply these tools quickly, as some of them will help me to optimise my time, my communication and my project management. I'd like to thank Sandrine for her pedagogical approach and the relevance of her answers to our questions.

The 1st was too focused on basic project management. It's true that a refresher course is needed to speak the same language, but devoting 1 day or even 1.5 days to it is far too much. The participants were already at an advanced level.

The training was not adapted to my activity. I'm taking this up internally.

I would have appreciated a few more exercises on load/capacity management. The first part focused on project management, which was supposed to be a prerequisite.

Interesting trainer with lots of concrete examples. Many aspects of project management were well explained. I would have liked the course to focus more on the 'multi-project' aspects.

RAS It's a shame there were only 3 of us! It limits the number of people we can talk to.
