Bevan Johnson, Project Manager, Fonterra

The online resources (material and questions) were very helpful for post-course study. The trainers know their stuff but more importantly, tailor it to the individual learning style and pace.
Nick Dollin, Project Manager, Trimble
It was great how Millpond modified the process to fit with the business and showed us how to use it. The shared ownership of the final process gave us confidence in an effective outcome.
