The venue was slightly cramped which was uncomfortable for Long hours of sitting1. Do you find the course meet your expectation? 2. Do you find the trainer knowledgeable in this subject? 3. How do you find the training environment
Would also appreciate the course to commence at 9am-5.30pm to give more time. Some
Parts of the course was rushed. Instructor (Marcel) was excellent in facilitating the course which was a challenging subject to most attendees but he managed to explain it clearly and took the effort to describe in layman terms. (Posted on 2/18/2020)
