Initially, I was unsure how the course would proceed as I was the only participant. However, it turned out to be one of the best courses I have taken in my professional career. The one-on-one, tailored attention was extremely valuable, especially given my existing COBIT knowledge and my interest in focusing on the design tools. The personalised guidance and practical insights made the course truly outstanding. I also appreciated the additional COBIT resources shared, such as the mapping between NIST and COBIT, which I can leverage in my work.
The course duration and materials were perfectly aligned with my expectations and needs.
I am very pleased to have been paired with John as my trainer. He not only had a strong command of the course content but also brought extensive hands-on experience in implementing IT governance systems, which added significant value to the learning experience.
