"The training itself was very good. The trainer was great and has a lot of experience. -> 10
The exam is a bit strange. The questions are quite ambiguous and the learning effect is close to zero as at the end, it is not possible to see a solution. ->6" - 20-03-2018 00:00

"Trainer Rikes was goed. Voelde de groep goed aan en zorgde dat iedereen op de trein bleef. Prima twee dagen gehad. Goed overleg over het programma. Ik kan niet veel verbeteringen aangeven" - 20-03-2018 00:00

"SCPT trainer were very good. They provided very good practices for implementing Safe within our company.
4 days of training is to short "to digest" this knowledge. 5 days would be better." - 20-03-2018 00:00

"Very well run course.
Substracting a bit from 10 due to the fact that I recently certified as SAFe Agilist, hence some content was top of mind already.
So in short - not a critical voice of the conductance of the course!" - 20-03-2018 00:00

"Amazing instructors Gerald en Odile. Thanks to them !!
Good material to support the course (excellent videos)
The course duration could be extended as there is a lot of material to leave more time for Q en A during the sessions." - 19-03-2018 00:00

"I liked practical exercises
The trainers had a wide background. They were friendly and stimulating for practice. They were also very detailed in their explanations and answered most of the questions in the right timeframe.
For personal logistic concerns and organization , I would have preferred the training session to be cut into 2 parts and also it could have enabled us to have a break and take a step back on the theoretical part.
I didnt like the fact that the preliminary background of the Agile was not mentioned and addressed before going to this SAFe training." - 19-03-2018 00:00

"Het kennisniveau van de trainer is praktisch en goed, hij heeft de lesstof op een voor mij goede manier gebracht. De input vooraf werd goed meegenomen. De benoemde minpunten van dag 1 werden in dag 2 redelijk gecorrigeerd." - 19-03-2018 00:00

"I think the course contained a lot of information. Maybe even too much for two training days.
The entry level is higher than the Scrum foundation level in my opinion.
I dont feel comfortable enough to immediately take the exam and I find it difficult to determine where to start preparing for it, other than going through the Scaled Agile website." - 13-03-2018 00:00

"Especially very content about the trainer. He brought the material in a way that benefited all kinds of learners (videos, discussions, drawings and slides)/ I have the feeling that I learned many new things and strengthened the Agile/Scrum knowledge I already had." - 12-03-2018 00:00

"The trainer (Ali) had good knowledge of the subject and was energetic and enthusiastic.
The training had a high theory level but content was well balanced over the 2 days.
Location is good and facilities are good however in the last part of the last day the neighboring class room was very vocal (not disturbing but noticeable).
I enjoyed the training, my class mates. Training was time well spent." - 12-03-2018 00:00

"Goede samenstelling van de lesmodules, goede docenten. Bijzonder fijne studie.
Nog wel een leerpuntje: de theorieexamens zouden we iets preciezer mogen (aansluiten bij de behandelde stof, juiste vraagstelling). Open vragen lastiger te beoordelen, maar tegelijk mogelijk kwaliteitsverhogend." - 07-03-2018 00:00

"Knap dat voor een groep met wisselende ervaring met Agile werken een interessant programma is geboden. Enthousiasme over Agile werken is versterkt. Ook het gevoel dat we het op grotere schaal kunnen realiseren binnen dVB. Compliment voor de trainer.
Ik zou deze training graag op grotere schaal aan willen bieden, met nog meer toewijding van de hoofddirectie om aan te geven dat dit de toekomst is voor dVB." - 05-03-2018 00:00

"Inhoud sloot aan bij verwachting en zeer goed vorm gegeven. Locatie was prima, verzorging was prima en docenten hadden meer dan voldoende kennis van zaken.
minpuntje: Kennistoetsen bleken niet altijd te kloppen i.r.t. de verzorgde presentatie / training. Dat was jammer." - 01-03-2018 00:00

"I enjoyed the content, the level of the trainer, as well as the location and the way the days were planned. I think there is room for improvement in terms of use cases from banking sector." - 28-02-2018 00:00

"Trainer was heel inspirerend door de verhalen die hij vertelde uit ervaring bij andere bedrijven als Philips en KLM. Er was een goede mix met luisteren en meedoen. Locatie was prima, goed leesbaar van het scherm." - 26-02-2018 00:00

"The course is great, but I felt like it would be better to make it 3 days long, so we can go into more details. I felt like we are discussing very generic principles and I would appresiate to have more time for details.
Probably because everything else was great. I gave the lowest evaluation points to the lunch :) It was a bit like in a hurry (althogh we had enough time, the environment was a hassle). Im even not sure I can explain it." - 26-02-2018 00:00

"Ik vond het een erg leuke cursus die mij nieuwe idee?n heeft gegeven die ik direct kan toepassen in mijn werk. De interactieve, hands on mentaliteit tijden de 2 cursusdagen zorgen voor veel energie. De afwisseling met de theorie had een goede balans wat mij betreft. Al met al zou ik deze cursus aanraden bij mijn collega Journey experts." - 23-02-2018 00:00

"after adjusting the general into specific the course improved. why use an example of a cinema while were working in a bank. The principles remain the same however, but using your own work as example, espacially when the whole group comes from 1 department." - 22-02-2018 00:00

"I was not very exited after day 1, mostly because of the repetitive character of the theory (compared to Leading SAFe). However, day 2 and 3 about PI Planning, PI execution and I en A was great." - 22-02-2018 00:00

"Rogier is een goede spreker. Hij is heel duidelijk in zijn uitleg en weet echt waar hij het over heeft. Een tip voor de volgende keer is dat er in het begin even duidelijk aangegeven wordt waar de cursus uit bestaat wat het doel is etc." - 22-02-2018 00:00
