The PRINCE2 training is well organized and the learning materials are helpful for independent learning.
When imparting knowledge, the trainer was able to convey the theory well with examples from practice. A clear recommendation on my part!
The catering is very good, parking spaces in the underground car park, low prices for face-to-face training.
Useful air filters and CO2 measuring devices are available, the distance buzzers and the one-way street on the floor are totally annoying ... but at least it is open.
So far I have had 3 face-to-face training sessions as a private person with 3 different trainers during the difficult time and was able to benefit from the summer campaign. 5 * star ratings for everyone!
Remarkable: many participants who sit everywhere in the Foundation seminars can apparently carry out detailed and professional evaluations of the trainers (m / f / d) ...
You should make up your own mind and not listen to any reviews.
After two ISO27001 training courses (Foundation and Information Security Officer) in Frankfurt, the positive experiences with the trainer (Christian Kohlmann) and the provider have once again been confirmed. Even in these times, they always act professionally, and the mood and interaction are very positive - which is also noticeable in the results. Organization, course material and didactics are absolutely state-of-the-art and make even complex content easy to understand. As with the previous ITIL training courses (V2 Service Manager, V3 Expert), Maxpert fully lives up to its good reputation.
Pleasant atmosphere, friendly service, good ratio of breaks and progress in the 2-day ITIL Fasttrack.
Modern training building, very competent and friendly trainers, org. Literature to the Seninars, starter kit with fully equipped bag and great food. I can only recommend it!
I attended the Prince2 and Iso27001 seminars. Both courses dealt with each other in an open manner. Know-how was conveyed in an understandable manner so that the exam can be passed. Extensive time was taken for questions that were asked. Gladly again
ISO 27001 online training:
+ Good trainer, experienced and well versed in content! To lead my deepest respect 3x8 hours by zooming through a frontal lesson! Pleasant voice, calm manner, competence and expertise, stable zoom connection and the use of a good webcam and a high quality headset complete the picture.
-For me a methodical and didactic improvement in training structure -> frontal teaching. To have the ISOs read out to you for several hours and to support them with a few anecdotes is tiring.
- Training documents that are insufficient for me and the unwillingness to provide the training documents digitally for online training are inadequate for me. Using the training materials as your own (digital) knowledge store, supplementing it with digital and your own examples during the training and expanding it in practice is counteracted. The lack of use of interactive media (digital whiteboards, digital project / Kanban boards to replay ISMS introductions and content, mind maps as knowledge storage, etc.) is a lack of quality for me. A possible gamification approach, digital interaction, the use of different learning methods (audio, visual, haptic, etc.) is demonstrably not even attempted.
- To have received some of the ISOs from you in the English version (2013) during the training and to use the German version (2017) in the presentation during the training and to switch again in the exam is symptomatic. (In the feedback I was assured that you would change that soon. Okay, but I paid for this course, not a future one!)
-Not your construction site but APMG: the use of examination software with privileged rights based on a Flash application that grants an unknown examiner almost full access to my system is only the icing on the cake for an ISO 27001 exam and is highly questionable.
- What makes me really and sustainably angry: Could you please not send plastic folders and plastic pencil cases that are not even recyclable. It doesn't cost you anything! A little bit of corporate social responsibility! (Here, too, I was assured that Maxpert is about to change that. Which shows me that you have recognized the problem for a long time and are still sending tons of plastic waste around!)
Suggestions for improvement:
Instead of sending a UPS package with a training folder filled with blank sheets and the copied (digital!) Sample test from APMG, it is better to send an email with a link to the relevant training content and documents. Prepare training content digitally and online with videos, games, ISO comics, procedure models, BPMN process models, and enrich interview videos with users and examples. Enclose the sample solutions for the sample test as a PDF. Using the training for interactive learning would certainly not only be expedient for the participants and their companies, it is also a minimal expectation in adult education.
Go to OpenHPI and look at an example of digital learning and exams (free of charge - also on the subject of IT security, design thinking including a certificate of participation, and much more). And don't "piss your pants" about a copyright on a few Maxpert sheets. That is thinking from the last millennium. This is not about the ISOs, it is clear that they are not to be output digitally. But dear Maxpert, have you ever thought that there might actually be copiers? Omg, I don't understand this thought pattern - it's the end of 2020! Google digital rights management (DRM), Form Follows Function, etc. Or do you even make the topic of "online training" the focus of your next Design Thinking training - or do you also do it in frontal teaching format?
Coach and training concept was very good. Organization and food was impeccable. I did not like the capsule coffee machine as unfortunately there is a lot of waste.
The training content was explained in an understandable way and the questions of the participants were answered very intensively. Therefore, we unfortunately did not manage to go through all the training material in time, which I found a great shame.
Corona rules are followed very well. Even if the distance buzzers are annoying, they ensure that the distance is maintained ...
Modern training building with a very pleasant learning environment and competent trainers.
Great training hotel, Essen 1A, WiFi in the hotel unfortunately not good.
For the training itself:
Very competent trainer (Arne Rybarski)
good content
very good time frame
Super organized!
Gladly again!!
Very well-equipped training center with top organization and modern premises, plus great food during the training. The two training courses ISO 27001 Foundation and ISO were carried out competently and entertaining by the lecturer. Questions and ambiguities were discussed in detail at any time. Both exams could be passed right away because of the good exam preparation. Absolutely recommended.
Context: ITIL Foundation Training
Trainer:
+ A sympathetic trainer with a lot of practical experience
- Two concepts were wrongly communicated in my opinion. (1) The PDCA cycle and (2) the CMMI maturity model summary were not correct.
Methodology:
- Unfortunately a pure frontal presentation. The participants were not required for discussion or group work. Thus, a transfer of knowledge takes place only minimally.
Documents:
+ Documents are plentiful and in good quality (panel paintings, book, presentation documents and sample exam)
- The documents are available only in paper form. Since this is not up-to-date and takes a lot of space in the closet
Organization:
+ Maxpert is easy to reach by underground
+ Drinks and snacks are available on the spot and in good quality
- The quality of the cafeteria for the lunch was unfortunately not satisfactory
My ITIL 4 Foundation online seminar was very well organized.
Fast and professional communication even with last minute changes. The quality of the seminar was good overall.
The trainer was very experienced and competent and conveyed the very dry ITIL material through concrete examples.
I unreservedly recommend Maxpert.
