p6 and safran risk Training Reviews

I enjoyed the online setting of this class. Each day I attended from home, which made the experience much more relaxed, and allowed me to focus on the lectures without the usual distractions of an office or school setting. I found the topics pertaining to activities within the WBS to be enlightening, as I have prior experience with SAP and I now understand how the data I input was implemented on the next steps of the project planning process.

I was genuinely really impressed with the course - it was incredibly well done. [I was] really impressed with the pace and layout of the class. The teacher was excellent, engaging and knowledgeful! I really enjoyed seeing the manual calculations for float. It was something that I had never seen broken down in that way, and it was helpful for deeper understanding.

I typically struggle to pay attention to online courses like this, but the hands-on experience while Mary Lynn was speaking made it easier to follow along and retain information.

Primavera training I've received in the past is often very dry and boring. This was the first time I've received Primavera training that was engaging and not boring.

Mary Lynn was very lovely. Very attentive and very knowledgeable of the program's ins and outs. [She was] very helpful with any issues or any problems you ran into while doing the course. She always made sure everyone was ahead and wasn't falling behind, and gave extra time to people that were having issues.

The instructor was very helpful and dealt with everyone individually if they were having issues. [The course] was pretty thorough and efficient. I look forward to participating in an advanced training course.

Mary Lynn is a fantastic presenter - very knowledgeable and patient.

Mary Lynn was great! Very knowledgeable on the software, and seemed to have an answer for every question that always cleared up any confusion very quickly.

All of the topics helped me to navigate and familiarize getting into P6 software. I enjoyed the case studies at the end of every section for practice. Both [instructors] are well informed and helped us to easily navigate P6. We could easily ask questions if we had any.

This was a great course, thanks for taking the time to put it together. I really enjoyed the workshops, so that we could try what we learned ourselves. I'd never used P6 before... but then when doing the solo workshops, I found myself able to complete them with ease, and am now much more confident in my ability to use the program.

I can't speak highly enough of Mary Lynn as a presenter. The transition from topic to topic was good, and everything flowed from one topic to the next.

I thought the course was perfect. I learned a lot and I appreciate the detail of the training guide as well, since this is how I learn best.

Great course materials and a very knowledgeable instructor! I was able to overcome technical challenges in real-time.

The flow was very helpful to understand the full scope and capacity of P6. I enjoyed the case studies, as it made me think more and navigate around by myself trying to find all the useful tools and buttons on my own. Thanks to Sue. She was very engaging and supportive; always took the time to help if we missed a step.

Sue is a fantastic trainer - knowledgeable, and full of energy and enthusiasm. There is a lot of material to cover but she makes it look easy, and takes the time to answer questions.

Definitely exceeded expectations. The instructor was very knowledgeable, and kind enough to share her experience in the industry and its relation to P6

Mary Lynn was great. Answered all questions and kept the pace perfectly. It was a great course with the outcome I had hoped for - I'm feeling much more confident in trying the things I don't get a chance to use everyday.

Thank you so much Sue for providing clear and well paced instruction. Thank you for being patient and answering all our questions. Great instruction.

I felt that this course was extremely helpful and has given me more confidence when using the tool. I found it quite fascinating learning about all the different functions that P6 is actually capable of.

Thank you so much for this tremendous source of knowledge and high-level professionalism. I have enjoyed this training so much, and it has helped to improve my performance and productivity.

Although I have been doing Turnaround scheduling, the course provided some different angles and tips that I wasn't privy to prior to the course. That being said, the course knowledge relates perfectly with my current role, and I am already utilizing new tips and techniques daily.

The entire course was very useful. Huge thanks to Ian for a great training with lots of opportunities to ask questions and talk about real life examples. Really enjoyable and informative course!

This is my 4th time using Emerald Associates for P6 training, and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. The instructors are amazing!

Great class. Ian is a skilled user and presenter. Very knowledgeable and open to answering complex questions. The process with Emerald Associates was very easy, and I would definitely recommend for any organization needing to learn or improve on their ability to use Safran [Risk].

Ian Nicholson covered a lot of scope in a short duration, while ensuring no one got left behind. He was very knowledgeable on the subject and clarified any questions we had immediately. He had a deep understanding of the CSRA process and industry practices, in addition to mastery of Safran. This helped him explain the functionality of the software in a way that is specifically applicable to our organisation. This wouldn't have been possible for an instruction with just software knowledge.

Very great course, Sue was lovely as always. She is a part of the reason why I always chose Emerald!

Ian is a great trainer. His work experience in the field combined with the thorough knowledge of the software made the training session very interactive.

Sue did a phenomenal job in introducing us to the Platform and teaching us the basics of navigation and function in a way that made the rest of the course feel intuitive. I particularly enjoyed learning about the resourcing functionality. Additionally, case studies were useful for reinforcing course content. I am excited to learn more about P6. Sue did a fantastic job showcasing the potential that this platform has.

Good training. The instructor demonstrated a very high level of P6 system knowledge and was able to provide clear instruction and answers to all questions asked.

Sue was an excellent instructor, very patient and thorough. She really went out of her way to ensure that everyone in the course was getting a good grasp on the material! 10/10 would recommend! Also, Sue's tip about using reflection projects during meetings to make changes to the schedule and review those changes prior to merging with the original schedule is going to be a life saver for me!

I found it a thorough review of all the basics in P6. The Case Studies were the best feature as it allowed the user to actually use the skills taught in the class. Thanks to Sue for her time. She was a great instructor, and I appreciated her time and efforts last week.

Excellent instructor. Very good coverage of the basics through to advanced features.

I'm very happy to have taken this course. I really enjoyed it and look forward to beginning to schedule my projects. The instructor was very knowledgeable and offered many examples.

All of the topics were very helpful to fully understand the capabilities of the software. The most helpful item of the course was Sue's ability to clearly explain how and why each step was taken. Sue was amazing!!

Mary Lynn was an outstanding instructor. She is exceptionally knowledgeable and was thorough in taking the time needed to answer each of our questions, and she made sure we all understood what we were learning before moving on to anything else. She made herself available to any questions we had.

I thought the training was excellent. The instructor was very knowledgeable and willing to spend as much time as required to answer questions from the group.
