I liked the most that the trainer was very open to questions from the participants and always did a review of what was taught across the training at the beginning of the meeting.

The course content was very well organized, with demos, useful online links, and examples. The instructor was knowledgeable and humble person. I particularly noticed his genuine interest in tailoring the class (e.g., setting up a policy/timing for question and answer during the class) to meet our needs. Overall, I had a wonderful experience.
