All the instructor really did was read the power point presentation for 4 days. There was good info there but was not interactive at all.

Stephen Mercer is a great trainer! He was super helpful, responsive and answered everyone's questions. There was about 30 people in my class virtually. We received a few 10-minute breaks and a 30-minute lunch break. I really appreciated that all the resources were available before the class even started so I could make sure my notes were accurate and up to date. Thank you

Stephen's way of speaking, and the organization of the material was great. The schedule was good. The presentation of the material was good. Hands on activities were lacking, but would have added a significant amount of time, probably not worth the trouble to add in. Overall, this was high quality and very comprehensive.

GSC and Paula Shafer did an outstanding knowledgeable presenting course deliverables to my skills. I have established a great pace and provided insight from past experiences in the various aspects of Project Management I learned a lot. With 17 years of experience in construction industries Paula has added some comprehensive knowledgeable skills to me. Thank you once again GSC !!!

The training was comprehensive with just the right amount of detail. Paula was very knowledgeable and informative, friendly and helpful. I appreciate the time/pace of the training, the materials provided, and the open forum (collaboration).

The training was great. It did feel a bit like being talked at/to and could benefit from more interactive breaks. There was a good balance of attendees that using a method of calling someone out to tee them up for the next question would be a good tool at keeping people focused and feel more involved. However, Paula voice and cadence were good at offsetting this a good bit making it still very captivating. All the real-life use cases were great references. The information and training materials provided were greatly appreciated and will be very useful. She also referenced a lot of tools and resources to gather outside of the training that were beneficial.

If you're preparing for the PMP exam, GSC's course is a must!! Paula, the instructor, was highly knowledgable and the class participation was great. I learned a lot and feel more prepared to test. The course also spawned a study group, so the learning continues. Thank you, GSC!

I wanted to share my feedback on Paula’s class. If I had to describe her in one word, it would be impressive. She is confident, knowledgeable, experienced, and well-read with PMI and subject matter content. Her breadth of experience is value added as she frequently had multiple industry experiences to share and clarify points. I enjoyed her class, and she managed to present the content and manage the attendees quite well, as there were over 40, not including Gold Standard resources. I am also a university faculty, and I can be strict in rating presentation style and content. In this regard, Paula would receive my highest rating. Professionally, I am working through the exam application process and can provide additional information following my taking of the exam regarding how well I feel she prepared me for the exam. Thank you, and if I require additional training in areas offered by Gold Standard Certifications, I will certainly look there first!

Instructor did a great job. To cover all of that content and keep everyone engaged was a challenge but Paula managed. The folks in the class I believe we all did well to engage with one another via chat. Etc. if this format had been done pre Covid probably would have been different reactions from students. I found it fascinating how we all connected and stayed connected and engaged throughout the four days. The tools are there for us to work with to prep now. If someone is looking for an economical, efficient, and effective way to prep for exam this is a great option.
