"Formation vivante avec des parties th?oriques et des parties pratiques qui ont permis de travailler sur notre contexte.
Formatrice vive et qui pratique, elle nous a donc beaucoup apport? et a rendu la formation tr?s efficiente." - 2018-11-19 00:00

"Odile est une belle personne, capacit? de comprendre et de ressentir les choses et tr?s belle empathie. Le cours est dense mais tr?s int?ressant. Odile, du fait de son expertise sait parfaitement contextualiser les sujets." - 2018-11-19 00:00

"The course was awesome and interesting. The only thing Id love to see improved is the slide-deck as it was really really REALLY text heavy and not as complementary.
Im aware that this is a tough challenge for a centralized slide deck but still ... :)" - 2018-11-16 00:00

"Trainers were enthusiastic, knowledgeable and energetic. Good job in general.
With a bit more screening of some of the questions we would have benefitted more from some of the planned exercises.
In terms of content, it was more IT-development focussed than what I had expected." - 2018-11-14 00:00

"Pros: I really liked the course. The trainer had quite good experience in the topic that heped to better understand how such a theoretical topic works in real life. I liked that we had a small group, because there were time to answer questions. I liked the role plays that gave me more confidence in what we learned.

Things to improve:
Maybe because we spent lot of the time with questions and role plays the last few hours become a rush over the the presentation and we may skipped more than it was planned.
The food served was for birds rather than grown-up mans, however it was very healthy :)" - 2018-11-13 00:00

"The experience of the teacher who was able to link theory to practice was very good.
The exercises and the start of the exercises could be better prepared. Although doing exercises helps you a lot in understanding the theory." - 2018-11-12 00:00

"Good balance between theory and exercises. But more exercises could help to deepen the knowledge, for example to make the interaction of roles, events, artefacts and the resulting pitfalls more comprehensible.
Odiles support was excellent and location was great. Im looking forward to the next training session in December :-)

"Top:Nice atmosphere and lots of humour created by the trainers. A lot of examples out of real life and experience.
Tip: The knowledge of Lean of the trainers could be extended more in depth. The Implementatie part of the SPC training did not get that much attention as the Leading Safe part." - 2018-11-09 00:00

"Trainer heeft hard moeten werken om theorie te brengen in een groep die eager was om aan de slag te gaan. Soms was het even zoeken, maar deze training heeft ons absoluut een kickstart gegeven om aan de slag te gaan, dank daarvoor!" - 2018-11-09 00:00

"It is nice to have international collegas in the course - exchange experience. Coach has also big experience and hi can motivate people!
to improve: the student group was too big - 30 people" - 2018-11-09 00:00

"Top:
The trainers were inspiring and had a lot of experience in change-management. There was room for questions.

Tips:
It would have been nice, for example, after course day 1 to immediately do an online business case or exercise. This has the advantage that what you have practiced during this course day can apply immediately.

There was a student who constantly asked questions about situations within his company and that sometimes went too deep. Occasionally this caused irritations.

Small group of 20 people and better separation between people with a lot of Safe experience and no Safe experience." - 2018-11-08 00:00

"Course location was great, the room interior design created an welcoming environment for the training. I also consider that the guidance from trainers was effective to accomodate theory with practical study cases." - 2018-11-07 00:00

"I liked the way of thinking (design,diamond (more options)), like Stephen COveys book - Third alternative. Always look for all the options, discuss them, rule options out en dont be bothered with those againh working on solutions. Theory was a lot about the end-customers (people on the street), but i will try to plot it on our internal customers. Thanks" - 2018-11-06 00:00

"I strongly feel the course should start with a case to which all elements of leading SAFe can be applied during the training. A lot of the time i missed concreet examples for the applications of theory." - 2018-11-05 00:00

"Un contenu tres riche qui pourrait etre trait? en 3 jours avec davantage dexercices et de mise en pratique
Sujet tr?s bien ma?tris? par la formatrice, un cours tr?s vivant et bien emmen? avec de nombreux ?changes." - 2018-11-04 00:00

"The trainer was the best Ive had for a SAFe class. If he had been my instructor for previous classes, I feel I would have been more prepared for those exams. I passed previous exams, but I still felt like I didnt understand the material as well as I wanted to. After taking Alis class, he was very thorough and explained things very well. I would highly recommend this trainer to anyone." - 2018-11-02 00:00

"Ik vond de inhoud van de training goed, wel nog erg theoretisch. Binnen onze groep merkte je dat er behoefte was aan praktische invulling van de theorie. Ik vond de stoelen in de ruimte niet erg comfortabel voor een volle dag cursus." - 2018-11-02 00:00

"Ik ben scrummaster en daarom was de eerste dag grotendeels herhaling. Dat was helemaal niet erg, want herhaling is altijd goed en ik merkte dat ik bepaalde onderdelen vergeten was of niet meer zo scherp voor ogen had. Ook de gesprekken met de andere cursisten die niet zoveel ervaring hadden met Agile was waardevol.
Gedurende de 2de dag werd de relatie gelegd naar het onderwerp (financiele-) controle. Dat was nieuw voor mij en erg waardevol.
Goeie afwisseling tussen theorie, discussie en games.
Lunch om de hoek was perfect, even een frisse neus en in een totaal andere omgeving.
Opmerking aan de docent: ik werd regelmatig afgeleid door het feit dat de docent de infrarood zapper steeds in en uit zijn broekzak haalde." - 2018-11-02 00:00

"Goed: veel interactie, hield de aandacht goed vast, afwisselend en met passie gebracht.
Tip: een korte evaluatie van de verschillende dagdelen is goed, het bevragen van de cursisten vond ik wat te schools" - 2018-11-01 00:00

"Le duo de formateur ?tait au top. Une r?partition des th?mes tr?s bien faite avec une alternance de th?orie et datelier en ?quipe tr?s r?ussi. Laccueil ?tait ?galement tr?s bien, durant ces 4 jours nous avons ?t? soign? et chouchout?." - 2018-10-31 00:00
