 | About the learning materials
What did you think of the workbook?
Superb! Thanks for your creativity, it keeps one's attention & focus. Frik Steyn - MRMS cc | It is an eye opener on how I and my projects and also gave me more tools to work off. Marélene Weitz - TrenStar SA (Pty) Ltd | Creative - enough info, not too serious, but conveyed the point. Terence Kruger - PACE Service | You put it across so simply. Twayne Stewart - Nitralife SA | Very accomodating. Charmaine Linton - Edison Jehamo Power (Pty) Ltd. | Good. Dirk Visagie - Donaldson Filtration | | Interessante voorlegging wat did vir my maklik gemaak het. Henrico Kotze - McCarty Motors | Great. Bobby Chetty - African Legal Networks | Well simplified. Dineo Motswaledi - Dimension Data | Easy to read and understand. Great that it's not paragraph on paragraph text. Love the dog idea. Alfred Chingombe - Nambiti Techno logies | I enjoyed it a lot. Had a lot of fun. Got to know more about project management. Jean-Pierre Horn – RVI | Loved it. Thought it was very creative and fun and kept me interested much longer. Jana Lock – Serengeti Landscaping | Boneless, loved it. Neels Grobbelaar - Security Electronic Design & Installation. | Marius Botha - TrenStar SA (Pty) Ltd | Hein Viljoen - Cell C | Very good. It provided the information in a simplistic yet informative way, maintaining the balance between information provided and entertainment to keep my attention. Victor Mhlanga – Netgear Custom Software Solutions | Interesting - the dog concept allowed for a truly fictional situation which forced me to focus on the principles rather than to draw from any previous experience. Candice Dampier - Mutual and Federal | It needs more content. It provides pics to understand visually what is needed - However if you didn't write down almost everything Tania said (which is difficult) this workbook won't really help you back in the workplace as a reference to know what, when and why. Johan Jansen van Rensburg - T-Systems SA | Outstanding. Puseletso Diale - Sun International | Very nice. Different idea - dogs. I like Fifi. Sifiso Mthethwa - Donaldson Filtration Systems | Very practical. I must say I expected a thick boring theoretical book. Vusi Makhanya - Shell SA | Nice and easy to follow. Too bad that few of us knew something about publishing a book. Jaco Jansen - Prismaflex RSA (Pty) Ltd. | Unorthodox but very effective. Martin Annandale - Self Employed | Would like more specific details. Allan Kumm - All-Tronix | Original idea. Joe Shikwane | Excellent. Elsie van Wyk - Standard Bank of South Africa | Did not respond well to the workbook. Found it a bit confusing. could not follow any time of sequence to the lecture and workbook. Pamela Naidoo - Syscom (Pty) Ltd. | Could use a better binding as my workbook fell apart. Although content was good. Romona Naidoo - Standard Bank of South Africa | Excellent concept! I loved the "Dog" idea! Nathasha Asari - Standard Bank of South Africa | Interesting and entertaining. Ilszé Claassen - Standard Bank of South Africa | Informative and well written Nicholine Tsenasi - Standard Bank of South Africa | The workbook was great. Enver Francis - Standard Bank of South Africa | I loved it. The cartoon element made it very easy to understand. Very unique, I must say. Yvonne Pakane - Standard Bank of South Africa |
 | What could be improved?
Nothing Frik Steyn - MRMS cc | I would like to see an example of a actual Project done in full. Marélene Weitz - TrenStar SA (Pty) Ltd | Snacks on tables. Twayne Stewart - Nitralife SA | More quizzes. Dirk Visagie - Donaldson Filtration | | Om die "nuwe" ou saam met ervaring te voeg/in te deel. Henrico Kotze - McCarty Motors | Not that I know of. Bobby Chetty - African Legal Networks | Make field specific guid stories - It is easier to relate to and more practical. Dineo Motswaledi - Dimension Data | Binding!! - Back pages kept falling out.Alfred Chingombe - Nambiti Techno logies | Jean-Pierre Horn – RVI | I think keep going the way you are. Neels Grobbelaar - Security Electronic Design & Installation. | All went well for me. I would like more info how to do Projects in my business and to use a software package. (I have MS Project 2003) Marius Botha - TrenStar SA (Pty) Ltd | Some feedback on general things to look for after groundwork sessions. Although it was done sometimes, a little more emphasis would be nice. Hein Viljoen - Cell C | Maybe chaging the examples to more reality would give me a more proffesional feel but Fifi could give good reason to be relaxed. Victor Mhlanga – Netgear Custom Software Solutions | More content - (more written info) Candice Dampier - Mutual and Federal | Summaries at the end of each phase/principle. Johan Jansen van Rensburg - T-Systems SA | None Puseletso Diale - Sun International | I was happy about the entire material. Maybe it was because for me it is the first time I did a Project Management course. Vusi Makhanya - Shell SA | The storyline to something most people would have some knowledge of the procedure. Jaco Jansen - Prismaflex RSA (Pty) Ltd. | Perhaps a bit more detail in explanations and a somewhat more generic project subject. Martin Annandale - Self Employed | More factual. Allan Kumm - All-Tronix | The workbook with real project. Pamela Naidoo - Syscom (Pty) Ltd. | The time was not enough. Need more time, this workshop should be held over 3 days. Romona Naidoo - Standard Bank of South Africa | Perhaps more interaction in the groups. Ilszé Claassen - Standard Bank of South Africa
Did you find the quizzes helpful?
Definitely. Once you have to answer questions then only you know wether or not you understand the principle. Frik Steyn - MRMS cc | Yes. Marélene Weitz - TrenStar SA (Pty) Ltd | Got me thinking and other's responses helped broaden that thinking. Terence Kruger - PACE Service | Yes. Twayne Stewart - Nitralife SA | Yes.

Hein Viljoen - Cell C | Yes. Especially the discusion afterwards.Victor Mhlanga – Netgear Custom Software Solutions | Yes, but I would like more. Maybe one after every phase/principle to gauge if you are grasping the concept. Candice Dampier - Mutual and Federal | Very much. Johan Jansen van Rensburg - T-Systems SA | Yes. Puseletso Diale - Sun International | Yes. Sifiso Mthethwa - Donaldson Filtration Systems | Very. More of them would be a bright idea, methinks! Vusi Makhanya - Shell SA | Very helpful. Jaco Jansen - Prismaflex RSA (Pty) Ltd. | Generally yes. Martin Annandale - Self Employed | Yes. Allan Kumm - All-Tronix | Very much. Joe Shikwane | Yes. Angelique van Wyngaard - @Work ISS | Yes. Elsie van Wyk - Standard Bank of South Africa | Yes. Pamela Naidoo - Syscom (Pty) Ltd. | Yes. Romona Naidoo - Standard Bank of South Africa | Yes. Nathasha Asari - Standard Bank of South Africa | Yes. Ilszé Claassen - Standard Bank of South Africa | Very much. Nicholine Tsenasi - Standard Bank of South Africa | Yes, quizzes were helpful.

Marius Botha - TrenStar SA (Pty) Ltd | Bringing over the knowledge and explanation of where she is going. Hein Viljoen - Cell C | * Very good at giving examples to make me VISUALISE examples. * She made some otherwise complex concepts really simple - she must really understand her subjects to do that. * Threw in very subtle but witty humour. * Drew from real-life examples to simplify explanations. Victor Mhlanga – Netgear Custom Software Solutions | Make content relatable to stories, but sometimes the stories went on a little too long and ate into time that could have been used to concentrate on the harder concepts.

Puseletso Diale - Sun International | Eloquent and elaborative. Sifiso Mthethwa - Donaldson Filtration Systems | * Good examples and time keeping * Clear to understand and very knowledgable.

Help us
Anything else we should know that could be helpful?
Marélene Weitz - TrenStar SA (Pty) Ltd | N/A.Bobby Chetty - African Legal Networks | No, thanks for everything. Jana Lock – Serengeti Landscaping | With the final project assignment, baybe better to give people a chanve to showcase their work (but time may be a constraint). Victor Mhlanga – Unknown | I would suggest a book with loads of content and a high level overview of dicussions . That way you leave with the content we did not get to. Training (even if it is a small amount) on MSP. People are scared on MSP and it’s a prerequisite in PMPO's for even administrators. Candice Dampier - Mutual and Federal | None. Johan Jansen van Rensburg - T-Systems SA | Follow-up courses! And advice to those in PM but would love to do it. Vusi Makhanya - Shell SA | Do not leave unaswered questions. Pamela Naidoo - Syscom (Pty) Ltd. |
