The topic of BPM is close to me due to the role I play. Filip has a nice, relaxed approach and explains the issues discussed very well. Dispenses knowledge at a good pace and quantity. The material is very nice and clear, and completing the training gives you a pleasant feeling of improving your skills. It's nice that we found time to also look at our problems with BPMN and suggest solutions. In my opinion, the IT side is also a strong point of the training. Everything works, nothing breaks, there are no delays and you don't have to worry about technology, you can just focus on the material. Congratulations on a great training platform.

Machine Translated

A large number of tasks to complete on your own, so you can check on an ongoing basis whether you have understood the topics discussed and are able to make the model yourself. Joint checking of tasks allows the trainer to verify whether the task has been performed correctly and provides feedback to the trainee. Even when verifying other people's tasks, you can learn how others approached the topic, what they did better and what mistakes they made, which reduces the risk of making such mistakes yourself. A very nice platform on which the training was conducted. Great contact with the trainer.
