The trainer was very knowledgeable and I am satisfied with the quality of the training I received. In fact, we spent 2.5 out of 4 days on SQL, even though this topic took up a much larger proportion of the course than had been advertised. I would urge Orsys to review the course description so that it more accurately reflects the content actually covered.

I would have liked to have spent more time on the MCD section (particularly CIM/CIF) and the MLD section (particularly normalisation/denormalisation) and less time on the first section on ‘SQL querying’, although I also learnt a great deal from that (refreshing my memory on concepts I’d forgotten).

I think the proportion of SQL compared to the rest (more than half the days) is out of proportion... I would have liked to have taken it a bit slower towards the end... but I did learn two or three new things about SQL all the same
