Parallel Project Training Reviews

The role plays and the feedbacks were very useful. The course material although good was more a reminder than much new. It was not clear what the pre work was. The role plays are much better suited 1 or 2 people (PM & technical), not 3.

The course content appeared to be pitched at RM/Senior level and covered project management from start proposal/design to closure. As an RA, I am not involved in the project design/planning and are usually only involved in managing the implementation of projects (day-to-day management and completion of tasks that are already planned/scheduled by senior colleagues).

The course covered basic definitions while most of the questions in Exam were more trickier than just basic definitions. We invested lots of time in group discussion which was not very helpful particularly to absolute beginners

N/A

Very intense two days with exam included late on a Friday afternoon- not great for learning

The questions here aren't really capturing the experience of the course. While everything was covered, and the trainer was good, and online learning was useful (i couldnt have done it otherwise), the fact was that the sessions were far too long. Everyone was worn out by the afternoon and struggling to take information in. Most people would have preferred a longer course with shorter sessions.

I felt that the first session was good as it was done over a full day, however after that it felt slightly rushed as it was squeezed into half day sessions

The pace was almost right, sometimes abit too quick

Learning platform was good More examples of using it in real life would help during in person sessions Additionally more time to go through model application. A simplified NR case study were we can explore the case content each week would help embed it more

The question is very detailed and informative. However this does not suit many learning style there is a lot of information to take in while that is great for graduates this is not realistic or manageable within the world of working Project Managers. Being a closed book exam this is difficult as I feel that this should be open book as in project management we regularly refer back to standard policies etc for the their but we should demonstrate knowledge and application in work based scenarios we have experienced. This should a 10/12week course as cover 7+modules in one sitting and being expecting to retain all information is not practicable.
