The trainer really adapted the training to our level and took a lot of time and efforts to make sure the presentation was well adapted.

Course - C++ for Embedded Systems
Interactivity, time for self-contained programming. I learn easier if I have the chance to find out the answer and not just telling me it. It was also a very good thing that the training was well-planned, we kept coffee pauses and the training did not lose my attention. The trainer had very deep knowledge in C++, we felt we could ask anything.
