Présentation du sujet très claire. Le petit nombre de participants a permis une bonne interaction.Je vois déjà comment je vais pouvoir mettre en application cette formation, professionnellement et personnellement.

Ne connaissant pas du tout le sujet de la carte mentale, la formation m’a permis de l’appréhender et de bien comprendre toutes les applications possibles, à titre personnel ou professionnel. Le fait de commencer par de la théorie et de la pratique papier avant d’utiliser un logiciel dédié permet de mettre en place les bonnes pratiques. Formatrice très bien avec explications claires. Les exemples d’application sont très utiles.
