Instructor was very engaging

The Prince2 course is a tough course. Our instructor Victor was extremely engaging and really knew the material. As tough as the course was, he made it much more enjoyable.

An intensive and positive learning experience.

There's no denying there is a lot to learn, however the structure of the course, small class size and experienced trainer (Steven) combined to help the coursework sink in and make sense during the week. The pre-course information, textbooks, pre-reading list and guidance were all clear and well delivered, which helped me get off to a good start. The whole experience with Advantage Learning was positive, focussed and in a relaxed environment and I would recommend this course to anyone considering the Prince2 route.

Hi Paul, Congratulations on passing. Steven gets a lot of positive feedback as he knows PRINCE2 to an ultra detailed level and is good as explaining that back. Advantage Learning keeps classes small so you have time to discuss things and ask as many questions as you need. We want to make it like First Class in a train or plane - less people = better service

Quick, effective and efficient learning.

The PRINCE2 class was very quick with a lot of information to take in, in a short period of time. There were however good practical exam questions that helped prepare you for the final. I would recommend reading the book over entirely once or twice before the course begins.

HI Sandra - good tip - it's all about the official PRINCE2 book. Everything for your exam is in there, so it's worth taking time to master it.

Whirl wind of PRINCE2 information in a week!

It really helps to read the PRINCE2 text book before you start the course as there are a lot of information to take in. Advantage Learning trainer will fully guides you and give you great tips and advice on how to pass the exam.

Hi Saki, Glad Ian was able to help - he knows the manual very well and is good at pointing out the really important bits. It was nice chatting with you after the exam. Regards, Paul

Great instructor - Great Course

Having participated in courses where the curriculum was not well thought out, or the instructor was not prepared, one can appreciate the times when both stand out. The Advantage Learning course for MOP Foundation & Practioner was well paced, and provided excellent information on what was required to take and pass the certification exams. The instructor was very knowledgable in the material, and most importantly how it relates to the work place. Definitely would recommend to others.

Hi Michael, Thanks for your kind words - we'll pass them on to your Trainer. She has a good grasp of the detail of Project Portfolio Management with MoP and was, in fact, Canada's first ever MoP instructor. Hope you will be able to apply the Principles and Practices of MoP to your current portfolio

MS Project 2010 wih PRINCE 2 - great course

I have used Project in the past and have been a PRINCE 2 Practitioner for some time now. This course was good to marry both up and get some very useful tips and short cuts at the same time. I shall use this in conjunction with my other tools to manage my projects in future.

It is a good course and I'd recommend it to you.

Finally, Microsoft Project makes sense to me!

I went into this training safe in the knowledge that I did not like using Microsoft Project and that this training might mean I start using it but I would never actually like it...
Well I have been proved wrong. I still can't say I am a Microsoft Project advocate but I can say that I now better understand how I can use it as a PRINCE 2 project manager. The training on using Microsoft Project 2010 with PRINCE2 was well presented, clear and not overally complicated. It did not try and cover absolutely every technical aspect of Microsoft Project 2010 but concentrated on what was useful for managing projects in a Prince 2 environment and walked through how you would use it in this way.
Whereas before I would avoid using Microsoft Project 2010 wherever I could after the training I have actually found myself using it. I would definitely recommend this course, it has proved to be useful to me.

Ruth, you made my day, thanks :) I really enjoy teaching the Project and PRINCE2 course and your review summed up what a lot of people feel - Project can be complicated and frustration soon sets in. We focus on keeping it simple so you can use the bits that matter and get it to work properly in a PRINCE2 environment. Thanks again, Paul

Interesting, Informative, Challenging and a great learning experience.

From my nomination to attend the course the support was superb - both in terms of pre-course materials and preparation and the actual delivery of the course.

Faciltation by Steven was great - delivered at a good pace for everyone - taking account of individual needs and preparing us with good hints and tips when it came to the 2 exams.

Overall a great learning experience.

Professional and thoughtful delivery of MSP course.

Anne's delivery of the MSP Foundation & Practitioner course was professional, thoughtful and incisive. Anne struck a good balance between presenting course materials, case studies and group exercises, reflecting on our own learning and experience, and preparation for the exams. I would have no hesitation in recommending Anne for this course.

Thanks for your comments Paul. A good trainer makes all the difference and Anne is an MSP specialist and former Senior Examiner - so she really knows her stuff! Will pass on your kind words

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Anne was an excellent training - certainly amongst the very best I've had.

I was on an MSP training course and exam delivered entirely to colleagues from the same public sector body. The training guided discussion well to enable us to apply the concepts discussed to our shared and individual experience. She got the balance exactly right between learning for the purpose of practicing MSP in the future and focusing upon the exam that loomed at the end of the week.

Focussed on turning theory into practise

Our Advantage Learning course leader, Anne, was great at checking we understood the materials and happy to answer question on the theory or real life situations. She kept us focussed on the fast paced timetable and imminent exams, but was always willing to take time to repeat more challenging sections and give practical examples to turn theory into practise. Thanks Anne for helping me to pass!

Thorough training and great venues

We've attended 2 courses and the Advantage trainers were both very knowledgeable and responsive to my team's needs. The corporate staff were proactive and able to offer advice and guidance, which was a bonus.

Anne was a terrific trainer who was focussed and very experienced in imparting her knowledge so that we could pass the MSP practitionner course. The venue was terrific, with great food and lots of space in the room.

A high quality learning product

The service from Advantage Learning was extremely professional throughout - from the pre-course information to the training facilities (accommodation and catering) to the teaching and exam itself. The course leader was extremely knowledgeable and experienced and provided the right level of support for passing the exam as well as day to day practical insight.

Thanks Julia - you've highted the fact that all areas of your learning course are important - getting the pre-course work early, having a good location so you don't have to worry about stuff and, of course, an expert trainer. Glad it all worked for you and congratulations on passing your MSP exam

Excellent,well presented training which had a real realvance to the knowelege and skills I require to do my Job effectively and efficiently

The Training was carried out in a very structured and professional way and it was both challenging and enjoyable. The flow and pace of the course material was just about right and this was supplemented by active interaction and group discussion between the Trainer and Students. The Trainer was particularly skilled in recalling real life experiences and examples which allowed me to better understand the information and put it into context.

Would definitely recommend the trainer and organisation

This support was invaluable in getting through the practitioner exam. Steven brought a dry subject domain to live with enthusiasm and supported every practitioner to develop their thinking around critical areas to pass their exam. I have nothing but praise and would recommend advantage learning.
