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.
