Lance was such a great instructor. He gave examples that are related to American Airlines. #AmazingInstructor

Great instructor. Made practical application of the course material.

Lance and Cort were very helpful. I learned a lot from this course, the format was great, and both Lance and Cort made sure everyone understood the material before moving forward. If someone had questions, they made themselves available after the class to address any query. I will definitely be taking more courses taught by Lance.

Very practical and use case driving training. I am leaving this training with better skills and ideas to improve scrum. Thank you for the great training!

Loved the class. Lance keeps moving around and lets you play with things on the table that keeps you focused

Lance was a good instructor, the content was applicable, and the breakout sessions were well-executed. I was overall very happy with this training.

Perfectly taught by instructor.

The class taught me some key aspects of a PO. Lance did a great job facilitating the class and sharing his knowledge. I thought the PO exam questions were straightforward. I liked it not being timed so that I could take my time reading and digesting the questions and answers. Thank you!

Lance was awesome. As a new product owner, this course gave me so much insight into the role and all that entails. He was knowledgeable and made the course fun and engaging!
