an important and educational (half) week.

I think it's a very important and educational week. The course was very lengthy though.

Gained new insights and course taught in an inspiring way. Teacher well versed and was open to dialogue. There was also humor. All in all, fine course.

Very instructive

Because there were only 3 of us in the class with Jan being a great and competent teacher I learned a lot, also because the other two gentlemen came from totally different companies that I do myself. We had all the time and space to hear each other's situations to which Jan very nicely gave additional answers how to deal with certain situations and what the legislation says about them.
