"Very Knowledgeable Teacher with a very small class size allowed for a good learning experience. "
"Just finished a very productive PRINCE2 Foundation and Practitioner training! My trainer, Pritesh Shah, was incredibly attentive and supportive. He did an amazing job breaking down the complex topics you face in the exam and provided all the necessary tools and tricks to pass successfully. Thank you, Pritesh!"
"In terms of content, all good. But poor time management. Time expected for breaks was never compliant (ie. if teacher said he was taking 10 mins break, it ended up being 20. For 50 mins break, teacher was showing up AT least 10-15 mins late...) Also, during second day I asked one question about a test and teacher seem disappointed for me to ask and gave me a whole speech of me not retaining all information while reading (after hours of exhausted training) also letting me know people who does not focus tend to have Low IQ... Also, having to spend time just waiting for teacher to end notes that I guess it should have been ready already for the lesson (at least, if the teacher is expecting for the alum to memorize and know everything at once) "
"I recently completed the PRINCE2 Foundation & Practitioner Certification (7th Edition) with Invensis Learning, and I couldn't be more satisfied! As a Program Manager, the skills and knowledge I gained have been invaluable for my projects. The trainers were incredibly knowledgeable, and the course materials were comprehensive and well-structured. I highly recommend Invensis Learning for anyone looking to enhance their project management expertise! - William Thompson"
