Some of the case studies were quite complicated and technical for someone without a law background. Making them simpler would allow more time for thinking about the procurement-related questions associated with the case study, rather than spending most of the time trying to understand the situation being described in the case study.

I think this course was very good, and could be marketed for senior advisors or new middle management professionals.Very well spoken, articulate, and brought meaningful anecdotes to each situations the class was faced with. I liked that he had a variety of private sector experience to compliment his work with The Bank of Canada. This is better suited for aspiring managers or Directors.

It is relevant and will help when planning activites or prjects. Michel made the content interesting even though at its core the content could be dry. The class was relevant to my day to day. I would recommend Michel and the course to any friends and colleagues. His experience is evident in his delivery of the course materials. He is knowledgeable and shares his knowledge with ease and makes difficult or abstract theories very easy to understand.

Past Participant, TJX Canada Nov 18, 2019
I felt at times the case studies at the beginning of the sections were difficult to work on without more information about the section. it would be beneficial to do them at the end of the section. Mikhail was an extremely knowledgeable facilitator and provided great stories and examples. At times I felt the content could have moved along faster and the breaks felt quite long at times. It provides a consistent approach to how to think and consider future possibilities then bring them into real world application.
-
David Neal, Koppert Canada Ltd. Nov 18, 2019

Past Participant, Canadian Partnership Against Cancer Nov 16, 2019
The content was well presented, great discussion amongst the group. I found the content on Day 2 around the 'Think" stage to be especially valuable. Content was quite private sector/for profit enterprise focuses. Some examples from the public sector could have been beneficial. Mikhail was engaging and well versed in the content. He listened to the group's needs and was able to adjust and pivot as needed. Helpful nuggets and tools provided.

Past participant, Cancer Care Ontario Jul 16, 2018
The content was at a very beginner level. I think it should be marketed this way. I did not think Franca was a very respectful facilitator. She created an uncomfortable learning environment. She was inflexible, impatient, and even rude at times. She was unable to time manage herself and had to rely on the group to come up with strategies to help her. We spent 30mins on day 2 helping her decide which strategy to use. This is not a good use of 20 professionals time. She also put people on the spot, was abrupt and treated participants like they were children. The facilitation of the course was hugely disappointing. I would recommend to my organization that we do not continue to take courses from your organization.

The course tied into another one that my department attended last year. I found Jolene very knowledgeable and engagingThe participants were all engaged. It was a small class, but the interactions from different people and companies was interesting. There was a serious lack of food during the course. I have attended courses in Toronto, on there is food for breaks and choices at lunch both hot and cold and then more food for breaks. There was only a room temperature salad and sandwiches which appeared to be refrigerated for a number of days, Serious negative on the food.

course content was ok - I thought there would be even more real life case study examples and discussion surrounding them. overall the course did not wow me Sal was very nice and seemed knowledgeable. He would frequently reference RCMP as a main client he worked with and that seemed to limit is organizational knowledge overall to share experiences. He also would make comments about american politics and trump that were uncomfortable especially with an american participant in the course. He spent 1.5 days on module 1 and 2 with limited time for the final 2...seemed rushed and frequently went outside of course content with his own videos and materials.

The course SURPASSED my expectations. Our instructor, Roxanne, was great. We were a small class (5) which allowed for A LOT of discussion time. Roxanne is a warm, friendly and outgoing facilitator. Very knowledgeable and dynamic. The only part I wasn't completely satisfied with, was the location. For those of us from out of town, there are no nearby accommodations; therefore, making travelling to/from, very difficult.

Roxanne was a great facilitator. Very knowledgeable and helpful. See earlier comments (excellent facilitator) One tweak to the course that might work would be to take the case study and fill it out throughout the course. Ie: after the section on Think - take the case study and do all the thinking pieces. After the link piece is complete, take the case study and do all the link activities etc...

The group exercise felt rushed. In general there was plenty of time for all the exercises. It was just the last one. It would have been good to have at least 2 hours to work on it. The artificial time pressure can still be created with two hours but it would have given us a chance to actually feel confident when using the tools rather than pushing through to get all aspects completed before we present.

I found Franca a little intense when it came to the "rules" of the classroom. I am not sure we needed to be reminded about them as often as we were. She was quick to shut down conversation at tables thinking that we were interrupting when in fact we were discussion course content. I think a little more flexibility and grace would have been beneficial. I do understand and appreciate that she kept things on track and she did use time very well in that we did not go overtime on any module or beat any module to death, she was effective and efficient in the flow of the course.

At times the materials in the book seemed a bit confusing. Some of the examples/questions were worded awkwardly or were difficult to understand. I liked that the materials allowed lots of opportunity for reflection and repetition of the material. Debora was an amazing instructor. She had the ability to deliver the training in an engaging and interesting way. She shared techniques, stories, and other material and was able to link directly to the learning and concepts. She was an excellent facilitator and did a fantastic job of ensuring everyone participated and we learned from each other.

Material and content was easy to follow and very relate able. The group discussion generated great conversation in relation to the topics covered. There were many take aways from the course.

A bit too much group work - doing group work was fine, but I enjoyed the theory and Candida's speaking material the best.

The concepts seemed a little blurry. The decriptions in the book were vague at best. The activities we're solid, but I'd prefer more real life examples to my job and other companies. The tools we're good to learn about in the Think section.

Excellent instructor. Quite a bit of refresh of basic principles but helpful nonetheless. Case studies were very helpful in putting the methods into practice.

Some of the cases and tasks in the notebook were confusing, but the course moderater did an excellent job at making sure we had the information we needed to do the exercises and to clarify the confusing points. Would definitely take another class run by Roxanne!

The class size was very good for participation and interaction -- everybody participated to a full extent. I got more out of this course than I thought I would.The instructor, Roxanne, was very engaging and knowledgeable. She kept my attention throughout the course. She reflected her extensive experience.
