Iain is a fantastic, dynamic and truly engaging trainer.
It was excellent.
Thank you for the training on 20 April. Very insightful.
Overall a well-run training session. The facilitator was interactive and approachable and managed the classroom excellently.
My First Company Ever. My first family. I have been employed by DVT straight after Matric and have been going strong for over a year now. There are tons of learning opportunity and experience to be gained. I feel that I have grown more with DVT in this year than ever before. I am excited to see where DVT will venture in the years to come and I would like to be apart of it. #MarioForPresident.
What makes a company great is the people within the company and DVT has been able to provide a welcoming environment making us one big family and this has been the greatest experience for me thus far.
Thank very much for an awesome and I must say life changing experience after attending the UX Fundamentals course that was presented by Chris Dawson. He really knows his stuff and it was great to be able to connect and relate to the samples and scenarios that he presented. Taking us out of our comfort zone and yet doing it in such a way that we did not become defensive. Well done!
I would like to complement the trainer for a very interesting interaction with the trainee. It was very informative training.
Very good and so worth attending. I feel empowered and encouraged to practice the skills at work.
Enjoyed the course and your method of delivery with exercises.
It's been a great 2 days - fantastic trainer. I'd do another course with Iain if given the chance. Thanks!
Certainly gave me a great insight into the practical use of Scrum, the role of the ScrumMaster and how this role interacts with other roles in a very practical way. Iain presented the course in a very engaging and informative way. I really enjoyed the experience and took a lot out of it.
The course was well presented and very informative.

FAQ's
The core idea of Lean is to maximise customer value while minimising waste. All Agile Frameworks (including SCRUM and KANBAN) are based on the Lean principle with regards to value-driven focus and reducing waste. In fact, Lean is more focused on the mindset and thinking which overlaps brilliantly with an Agile framework as both are based on the same principles and values.
