Reviews
An insightful dive into a broad topic.
Michael did a great job of teaching the information. His explanations, discussion and humor made it easy to pay attention and interact. I enjoyed the break out rooms as it provided a chance to "play' with concepts just discussed.
Mike is very knowledgeable & adds a lot of examples to support the curriculum.
The learning material is very relevant and well taught by the instructor. I did appreciate that we actually had the chance to put what we learnt into practice. I also liked his use of real life stories.
The course was interactive and the instructor related it to real world experiences. He answered our questions very well and gave us great examples. He made learning fun.
First, the class was offered at a time that works for me and my job. Second, the price was reasonable; the value was greater than the cost. Third, my instructor was personable, effective, open to questions, and created an environment where I can be myself. Additionally, my instructor provided effective anecdotes that added more texture to the designed content. The exercises helped establish a healthy balance between listening and application. Additionally, the experience gave me an opportunity to connect with other like-minded people.
Mike is one of the best trainers i have come across. Immense wealth of knowledge and practical experience throughout the training. Also very engaging and interactive sessions. Don't think, just sign up for the class
Mike did a great job of keeping the class moving along and navigating between the breakout rooms to answer questions as they arose.
The Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO) course is an invaluable experience for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of Scrum from the product ownership perspective.
