What did attendees say about the course?

'Completing the TMAP®: Quality for Cross-Functional Teams course led by Phil Royston from Tesena was a great experience. Phil was able to clearly and effectively convey key concepts and practices crucial for ensuring quality in multidisciplinary teams. Thanks to his expertise and engagement, I gained many practical skills that I can immediately apply in my work. The interactive approach and realistic examples from practice significantly helped to reinforce the learned concepts. I would recommend this course to anyone looking to improve their skills in testing and quality assurance.'

- Radek Šikola

'If you grow up in the world full of waterfalls, it might be tough to shift both your thinking and the concepts on which you are founding your work. This course is not only crucial to survive in this fast-paced and ever-changing world of IT, but also made me realize that certain small steps can be made on a much smaller scale, hopefully with positive impact. Thought-provoking and inspiration, with practical examples ready to be applied immediately. Could not recommend more.'
