The stories that John is able to tell.

Emma-Jane Wood
{

Having only taken ITIL in Feburary, I felt that this course refreshed and consolidated my learning. From coming from a non-IT background, I found it hard to find examples of ITIL into my working life at King’s. The course helped me understand this more.

Nicola Penfold
{

It was nice to do it in person and meet colleagues.

John clearly knows his stuff and it was nice that he made the effort to remember and use our names through out the course.

John Butterworth
{

The exercises (although not all were necessary) and the opportunity to network with colleagues in other areas. There were some aspects of the course, such as pinpointing problem management, which were informative and useful. Journey to Service Excellence stuff was interesting.
The length, pace and content were all being worked on as part of the pilot, so I realise that this course might change significantly in the future but I felt that 2.5 days was sufficient.

Dan Kane

The content was interesting and applicable.

5
Mark Misselbrook
{

I though the material and the course delivery were great and I took a lot of ideas and learning away to use in my role. However, we weren’t provided with enough context as to how this course and qualification fits into the wider King’s objectives and bigger picture.

Ruadhan Jenkins
{

I really liked the trainer’s storytelling approach, it brought the content to life. This combined with practical ways to take the theory forward meant it felt like I have lots of takeaways, and things to do to embed the learning. For me personally this tied together a lot of separate initiatives I had or had planned to start working on into one joined-up framework which was fantastic.

Tom Laws
{

This is exactly the thinking that needs to be deployed across PS. The benefits of doing so are significant and readily evident.
