Véronique knows her subject very well; she backs up the theoretical concepts with examples from her previous professional experience. Nevertheless, I felt some tension during these 2 days (I was a spectator and not the recipient).

a good balance between practice and theory, with the presenter able to get the participants very involved through role-playing exercises, so keeping everyone's attention
