Very engaging and impactful. It definitely value for money.

John is a very enthusiastic teacher who made learning about Scrum a pleasure for everyone in the class!

Excellent content and well delivered in an interactive way at the right pace.

I really enjoyed this Scrum Master Course from Scrum Alliance,John Barrett was a very good Tutor. He made the lessons fun and enjoyable and I was very pleased that I passed the Course.

I learned far more than I expected in 2 days, including practical strategies for real-world scenarios. Really engaging training style and format.

Insightful and informative

John is knowledgeable and welcomes questions, his pace is easy to follow and was ideal for my particular preferences 10/10.

John is a brilliant instructor and knowledgeable on a wide variety of disciplines. I have recommended him as the instructor of choice inside our organisation for this course. I hope to do more courses in future with John as instructor. I have partaken in a number of such courses over the last 17 years and he is up there with the very best instructors!

Exceptional! The instructor was well informed and conducted the course in an orderly manner.
