Bonne ambianceLe formateur a répondu aux questions parfois en dehors du cadre de la formationBonne animation des exercices de creation de ticket et manipulation JIRAMAIS Le support de cours utilisé ne correspondait pas au support transmis, découvert par le formateur en début de formationsupport de cours est en mode serveur, l’environnement de test en mode cloudDes exercices avec des manipulations complexe Plan, programme sans but concret avec tatonnements font perdre les repères
