Au-delà du fait que les supports de cours PECB sont incomplets et les problèmes de clim et de wifi pas très agréables...L’essentielle de la formation a consisté par Atef à lire nos slides de cours et à insister sur des problématiques de normes et de certification. Il a vraiment manqué l’aspect opérationnel, l’expérience, du vécu pour rendre cette formation moins théorique et moins abscons. Honnêtement, il aurait été plus efficace de nous enfermer dans une pièce à faire un résumé d

Destinée à des profils très différents, donc le niveau restait assez général. Le support de formation présentait une qualité visuelle insuffisante et les diapositives étaient difficilement lisibles.

Beaucoup de théorie mais pas assez d’exemples concrets qui auraient permis de transposer certaines problématiques dans le cas de mon entreprise. Le formateur est très pointu sur le sujet mais il est dommage que l’on ait pas assez échangé sur des cas pratiques, notamment vis-à-vis des situations rencontrées par chacun des stagiaires.
