The governance topics were found to be particularly helpful – an aspect that is often neglected, especially in the context of regulated environments, and was examined here in a practical way.

Sofia

Software Architect

The fact that the training lasted four days was perceived as a real advantage. There was a feeling that depth and practice weren’t sacrificed for speed—which can easily happen with shorter formats.

Tyler

Lead Entreprise Architect

The content provided inspiration for rethinking development processes. The materials were also praised – structured, clear, and easily usable beyond the training.
