This course was exactly what I was looking for! Mark was a very knowledgeable and engaging instructor.

Well prepared. Knowledgeable on and passionate about the subject matter. The virtual course functioned equally well as the in-class course.

Great facilitation techniques often used as a regular classroom teacher (i.e. rephrasing, simplificaion, observing, hinting, investigative learning).
Mike PMontreal
This course has challenged me to take little steps within my tasks to be an effective team player. I also feel that the little tips and techniques will help me produce better quality in my projects. Enjoyed the use of SCRUM to conduct the training seminar and the group exercises or techniques presented because I felt engaged and they foster group participation.

Wonderful. Very interactive. Humourous.
Fred HToronto
Mark was great. I appreciated his directness.
James POttawa
Mark was very engaging and provides an excellent overview of the Scrum methodology.
Stephane LEdmonton
Mark was entertaining and kept the course moving. When we delved into detail the information was usually useful. We covered the basics and more, and it makes going back to work with reinforced skills and ideas on how to change our practices appealing instead of scary.
Samantha CMontreal
Excellent source of knowledge and provided additional resources. Helped with real examples
Sean OPrivate Client
I found Mark very engaging and thought he helped make the material very interesting.

This course was one of the best I have experienced, because we did everything instead of listening to someone talk.

Was very fun and good flow, not by the book provided but with sharing real-life examples and his previous experience. Very appreciated!
Kevin LToronto
The instructor Mark was very knowledgeable and provided lots of knowledge and examples. I learned a lot but did not realize what a huge topic this is.
Andrei DToronto
Mark and the course were able to give me a lot of different perspectives on how scrum can be applied. Mark is very knowledgable and has tech background [which] helped myself as we knew the sector better.
