Success Stories
Michael W.
CSM 3/6-3/9 Student
"Steve was such a great facilitator. I learned very well with his pace, tenor and ability to get to the crux of the assignment. I loved the course and instruction."
Carrie H.
CSM 2/21-2/24 Student
"I had a very positive experience with this course. Steve and Erica did a fantastic job! This course reinforced what I had already begun learning as well as taught me new things. I passed my Agile certification exam and I feel very ready to implement these practices on my team."
Loretta L.
CSM 2/21-2/24 Student
"Steve was concise and clear and effectively facilitated the group to practice the concepts The online course made it highly convenient: not only because it reduced commute time but it allowed participants from across the country who might otherwise had had to wait for enough interested parties to sign up in their local area."
Lewis H.
CSPO 2/13-2/16 Student
"The material is exceptionally helpful in my role. The flow of the training was logical and easy to follow. The instructor, Steve was not only extremely knowledgeable, but presented in an enthusiastic manner. Steve took the needed time to ensure the class was following well. Between the excellent material and phenomenal instructor, this was not only worthwhile, but also enjoyable. There are not enough positive adjectives to give unto Steve for his magnificent presentation!"
Michael A.
CSPO 2/13-2/16 Student
"The material is practical, and taught in such a way that no matter your experience level, you take something away from the experience.."
Kyle B.
CSM 2/6-2/9 Student
"The course was built with the student experience in mind. Very interactive and easy to follow along with. Steve, our instructor, was very good at guiding and explaining all of the course materials, and did not go into technical details that were not necessary or could be confusing. Overall great course."
Kerry K.
CSM 3/6-3/9 Student
"This course was a nice blend between lectures and activities and even though it was 4 hours per day, it seemed to go by quite quickly. The material was well presented and thought out and I was able to pass my certification exam the same day the course ended, without any additional studying."
Christine W.
CSPO 3/20-3/23 Student
"The course was well planned out, very engaging and group work that reinforced the concepts."
Matthew M.
CSPO 3/20-3/23 Student
"The instructor did a great job of delivering meaningful information paired with practical break outs that really helped cement the practices. Rather than it all being "theoretical", I felt like I walked away with a really concrete understanding of how to implement these practices in my own work immediately."
Cody Michael G.
Jira 3/27-3/29 Student
"This course was very informative even as someone with lots of experience with JIRA. For someone with little or no experience this class is easy to digest and comprehensive enough to get the comfortable using the service."
