Plenty of examples - and the trainer willing to bend backwards to help us with topics we were weaker in.
Wei Lit Teoh - HP Singapore (Private) Ltd.
Course - Advanced Python - 4 Days
Lots of exercises
Fanny Stauffer - UCB Pharma S.A.
Course - Advanced Python - 4 Days
The trainer gave a clear and systematic teaching. He usually gave the reasoning and fundamental knowledge behind the commands. He also gave us time to do the exercises and practice.
Felicia Rezanda - HP Singapore (Private) Ltd.
Course - Advanced Python - 4 Days
The first 2 days were very informative. it gets messy when you get into frameworks because every projects has its own goals and requirements and sometimes the 'popular' framework isn't suitable.
Raphael Treccani-Chinelli - Nordic Semiconductor ASA
Course - Advanced Python - 4 Days
Very good overview about python on a lot of area of usage.
János Dóra - Robert Bosch Kft.
Course - Advanced Python
The prepared Jupiter Notebook examples were really good. Plenty of explanations for later, offline use, and we didn't have to spend half of the training copying the examples.
Csongor Miklos - Robert Bosch Kft.
Course - Advanced Python
I liked the most Jorge's attitude, and his experience in python. The greatest topic for me was the Machine Learning topic.
