 "Best course I have been on for years. Totally relevant and practical, came out buzzing with ideas to improve our RFTs and evaluation processes."

-NZTA Tender Evaluator

"I have found this course very useful in many aspects. Even though I have had many years of experience in procurement, I found the course has helped me a lot in terms of obtaining the industrial knowledge, improving the practical skills, and applying the right techniques to the right jobs.

The course is well-designed and structured thus it is really easy to be picked up by the project or procurement managers who may have different levels of understanding of the rules, guidelines, and procedures and so on. In addition, the way you deliver the course is very professional and memorable, but most importantly it has lots of fun stuff that makes the learning enjoyable and interesting."
