8,0 “I was happy with the quality of materials and explanations”


7,0 “I found the online training very inspiring and well-structured. The content was relevant and directly applicable to my work, and the pace and structure made it easy to follow. What I especially appreciated were the practical examples (such as Amazon). At the same time, I notice that nothing compares to the social interaction and face-to-face exchange of experiences with others. Learning from each other’s perspectives and being able to ask deeper questions in conversation remains, for me, the most valuable way to truly internalize new knowledge.”
