  • Date entered: 2020-05-22 08:05:40 UTC
  • Course rating: Very Good
  • Most useful learnings: Importance of unit testing and surprisingly how easy it can be.
  • Concepts v exercises: Good balance
  • Presentation v discussion: Good balance
  • Course improvements: Found it a bit hard to concentrate some times, I would personally like a few more short breaks. Because they were afternoon sessions for us in UK (2 - 6pm) I preferred an early finish so didn't suggest it during the training sessions. But thinking of it now, short breaks would have helped. May be asking the group might be a good idea. More of a lesson for me rather than for James, becaue they were afternoon sessions, ended up working for the first half of the day which made it even more stressfull. Including homework etc it was by no means half day training.
  • Exercise rating: Very Good
  • Exercise improvements: I was slow to start on day two and three exercise, could just be me as I need to understand the overall system before i can start working on it. May be a warning/note that you 'must' watch the scheduler training video before the exercise would have helped. For the Flash Program, again it was not clear to me straight away what needed to be done. Overall may be the exercise descriptions can be made more clear.
  • Instructor comments: Loved the dojo setup so we didn't need to worry about the setup etc. How you can track attendee's progress and offer to help if you think they are stuck. The course material is very rich and i have learnt so much.
  • Better prepared: Much better
  • Start tomorrow: I intend to start today :)
  • Challenges to applying: NA
  • Other comments: It was very good overall apart from a few glitches which is always the case with technology and new setup. I was happy with the remote delivery.
  • Legacy code workshop: No
  • Recommend to others: Yes
