I thought from start to finish Brian was an excellent communicator, he was very patient and took things at a really good pace which made the content much more digestible. By the time I'd finished I feel like I have a good grasp of project management, its methodologies, and also why they're important. I would highly recommend Brain as a trainer to those looking to pick up PM quite quickly regardless of their professional background.
