Good help

Perhaps less catching up on modules that are not asked for due to calculator book or other tools. And pay a little more attention to things that do matter. Now we often got stuck because others entered into discussion for something that would not be asked and this in turn takes up extra time. Furthermore, the explanation was clear there was opportunity given for questions that did matter. All in all, an important course to pass

fine

The course at Special cargo was excellent. no comments/improvements towards SCS. Only comment I can make, and it is not so much directed toward SCS but more toward Cito. Is that you cannot see what mistakes you have made and thus cannot learn from them.
