Really pragmatic. Lots of detailed discussions, practical exercises. Constructive debates.
Echardt - BMW SA
Course - Professional Scrum with Kanban | PSK (Scrum.org accredited training course)
I really enjoyed the mix of interactive exercises as well as normal powerpoint teaching slides. The exercises really broke up what is normally a classic teacher/student teaching method but there was a good balance of group exercises as well as powerpoint slides. I think the trainer was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about what he taught.
