Course feedbacks    [EN - FR]

in English

The course was good, the instructor made good connection with the audience.

Danny was conducting the course in a very efficient and professional manner.

Very impressed with the training. Tutor had his work cut out with such a varied group. Some had no programming experience - some a lot. Yet he managed to strike a very good balance, I felt. Maybe it was too much for some of the complete beginners, but I felt he coped really well.

I would say the best course I've ever attended at the CE. I understood everything that was taught and it did not even seem an effort.

The instructor has a very high level of professional knowledge about the tool. It is obvious that he is a very advanced user of Dreamweaver and other web-related tools.

One of the very best instructors I have had in twenty years in the Commission.

Very interesting training. A further session (supervised website management) would be extremely useful.

Indeed a very interesting and rewarding course thanks to the competence of the trainer.

It was a very interested course and again, with a perfect instructor.

Very very good course, now I want to get started right away !!

The practical demonstrations when the course leader left the power point presentation to show in real time how things were done were the most useful.

The instructor approached the issue from the perspective of the user, thus making the presentation easily understandable.

en Français

Principalement j'ai apprécié le professionnalisme du formateur. Enthousiaste, dynamique, connaissant excellement bien son sujet, bien structuré dans sa matière. Pour un cours qui était pour moi un refresh et moi qui suis indépendante, j'ai appris durant ces deux jours une vingtaine de choses supplémentaires à la première cession, d'autres trucs, d'autres astuces ...

J’ai tout particulièrement apprécié la clarté avec laquelle l'instructeur à aborder la formation. De plus, comme nous le voulions, il a su adapter le cours à notre demande concrète. Je peux donc vous réaffirmer que cette formation fût très utile ...

Comme le formateur a commencé par nous demander quelles étaient nos attentes et qu''il a structuré le cours en fonction de celles, l''approche a été très constructive et enrichissante.

Le formateur est excellent tant du point de vue de ses connaissances que de celui de ses capacités pédagogiques.

Excellente pédagogie, très progressive, respectant le rythme du groupe, permettant d''assimiler à chaque étape.

How to bridge your database / web content / shop towards an internet application with PHP and MySQL ?

Do you remember the time of tipex? And the first memory handling type writer? Can you recall your first document published on a remote server somewhere in cyberspace where everyone could access it? And how not so many years ago it seemed a kind of wild dream sometimes uttered at coffee breaks?

You might be consider putting your database on-line or publishing web content dynamically or even opening your virtual shop as something beyond your realms? Too complicated? Or too expensive and forcing you to be dependant ?

Well actually, you can make yet another quantum jump and undertake any of these steps with relative ease.

Whilst keeping it fairly simple and maintaining your independency.
Whilst continuing to use your favorite database program such as MS Access.
With technology that is reliable - cheap - fast & open source, and thus a true solution.

Transformational Self Management with the magical formula:
 ? + . = ! 

Beyond the trap of amazing theories offering little applicability, this workshop proposes to be a genuine invitation to practically work on the topic of self / organisational / world change.
Departing point is the fact that we create our own reality and how our day to day experience can be used as input for a better management of the one thing we definitely can change: ourselves - and how this process is both condition and trigger for changes on other levels.

A rather unusual - and perhaps somewhat 'revolutionary' - workshop with following focus points

  • How can I be my own trainer/teacher?
  • The creative use of questions in a transformational process
  • 4 subjects for obtaining a master degree in self change management
  • The art of setting goals and the different levels of objectives in the light of managing change
  • Various experiences of the 'aha erlebnis' as an output and achievement, but also as an input flux for 'feed'-ing back.

Take action now, envisage something extra-ordinary and contact us for more information on this workshop.
