XPSILVER 3 months ago It was a phenomenal class. Nathan, the instructor, was outstanding, perfectly blending fun with knowledge. The session was impactful, with no dull moments at all. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect, but I’m really glad I was there. As for the venue, I believe they can do better with both signage and direction. Some people were at the hotel lobby way before the time of the class because the hotel receptionist told them to wait there, and that someone will come get them. 15 minutes into the class no one came and receptionist wasn't even helpful. Alice Mugo 3 months ago The session was well organised, informative, and very engaging. John Madden was an excellent trainer—knowledgeable, approachable, and clear in his explanations, which made the practical elements easy to understand and follow. The training environment was welcoming, and the course content was relevant and useful for my professional development. I would definitely recommend this training to anyone looking to complete their CSTF mandatory requirements.
