Star Trainer - Paul Ralton
I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for the amazing training provided by Paul Ralton. Both myself and my team found the Kanban techniques taught in the 2-day PSK-I Course to be incredibly valuable. Paul's experience and expertise as a star trainer were evident throughout the training sessions (this is my second training with Paul).
Thank you once again for a wonderful training experience. We look forward to applying the techniques we learned in our daily work very soon.
Highly recommend Paul's service to anyone who is looking to bring in Kanban technique into your Scrum Teams!

I particularly enjoyed the collaborative learning formats and liberating structures which made the content really dynamic and much easier to remember than any sort of death-by-powerpoint type training courses.

Professional Scrum Master Training
The training was exceptionally well-organized and delivered in a way that was both engaging and insightful.
Paul Ralton's, the trainer, deep knowledge of Scrum principles and real-world application provided a solid foundation, making even the more complex concepts easy to grasp. The interactive exercises and group discussions were particularly effective in helping us understand how to apply Scrum in our own work environment.
The practical examples and case studies really brought the theory to life, and I feel much more confident in my ability to contribute to a Scrum team. The trainer also created a supportive atmosphere where questions were encouraged, and everyone’s contributions were valued.
Overall, this training has equipped me with the tools and understanding needed to help our team work more effectively and efficiently. I’m excited to put these practices into action and see the positive impact on our projects. Thank you for an outstanding learning experience!

Excellent Course with Real-Life Applications and Great Collaboration
Paul is friendly and open about real-life experiences. There were many opportunities to collaborate with other participants during the course. In my session, there were 8 participants, and it was great to team up with them and learn from our shared ideas. Paul encouraged us to think about real-life solutions and ask questions whenever something was unclear. He would approach explanations from different angles to ensure understanding. The additional information and materials for Agile Scrum were highly appreciated. I have already passed the PSM 1 assessment and received my certificate—yay!

PSPO I - Training - Certification
I recently had the pleasure of attending a Proffessional Scrum Product Owner training session led by Paul Ralton, and I must say it was an incredibly enlightening experience. Paul is not just a coach and trainer; he is a true mentor who imparts valuable knowledge with a unique approach.
The training provided a comprehensive understanding of the fundamentals of product ownership, which are essential for anyone looking to excel in this role. However, what set this training apart was Paul's emphasis on the overall philosophy that product owners should embody to effectively manage their day-to-day activities within a Scrum framework.
Paul's insights were not only practical but also deeply thoughtful, highlighting the importance of empathy, communication, and emotional intelligence in product ownership. This holistic approach to training ensures that we, as product owners, are not just equipped with technical skills but are also prepared to foster a collaborative and positive team environment.
I am incredibly grateful for the knowledge and wisdom Paul shared. His ability to connect the dots between technical know-how and emotional intelligence has truly enhanced my perspective and approach towards product ownership. I highly recommend Paul Ralton's training to anyone seeking a profound and well-rounded understanding of Scrum Agile principles.
As a result of studing, prepping and processing all the valuable information obtained by the training, I have also managed to gain my PSPO I certification successfully.
I highly recommend for anyone who is looking to expand their knowledge in the field.

The excellent value of this course is down to Paul Ralton's ability to deliver it in an engaging and interactive manner. It's a difficult skill to do this for a room full of people across 2 days, and it's a credit to Paul's technique and vast knowledge of Scrum that he managed to do this so well.

Great Course and Content
Paul kept the pace of the course going, there is a lot to learn in a short time but unlike other courses I have attended it is not dragged out when it could be completed in less time. There is a lot of information to take in but it is presented in an engaging way on line with the use of MIRO so all can collaborate. There was enough time to ask questions and clarification and Paul ensured he was available before and after the course for any one to one time required. If you are looking for Scrum Master training you won't go wrong by signing up to a course that Paul is running.

Professional Scrum Master 1 - Great course
The course was intense and I really enjoyed that about it. It was not like other courses where the trainer is giving you a lot of theory and at the end you don't know how to use it, here we received a lot of useful materials what we can use later and we did a lot of practical exercises.
I really liked that the course was more focused on practical things and made us understand the principals of a Scrum Master.
I am ready now to bring a lot of new ideas to my organization thanks to this course.
Many thanks to Paul Ralton for making this training so nice!

Star Trainer - Paul Ralton
I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for the amazing training provided by Paul Ralton. Both myself and my team found the Kanban techniques taught in the 2-day PSK-I Course to be incredibly valuable. Paul's experience and expertise as a star trainer were evident throughout the training sessions (this is my second training with Paul).
Thank you once again for a wonderful training experience. We look forward to applying the techniques we learned in our daily work very soon.
Highly recommend Paul's service to anyone who is looking to bring in Kanban technique into your Scrum Teams!

Professional Scrum Master Training
The training was exceptionally well-organized and delivered in a way that was both engaging and insightful.
Paul Ralton's, the trainer, deep knowledge of Scrum principles and real-world application provided a solid foundation, making even the more complex concepts easy to grasp. The interactive exercises and group discussions were particularly effective in helping us understand how to apply Scrum in our own work environment.
The practical examples and case studies really brought the theory to life, and I feel much more confident in my ability to contribute to a Scrum team. The trainer also created a supportive atmosphere where questions were encouraged, and everyone’s contributions were valued.
Overall, this training has equipped me with the tools and understanding needed to help our team work more effectively and efficiently. I’m excited to put these practices into action and see the positive impact on our projects. Thank you for an outstanding learning experience!

PSPO I - Training - Certification
I recently had the pleasure of attending a Proffessional Scrum Product Owner training session led by Paul Ralton, and I must say it was an incredibly enlightening experience. Paul is not just a coach and trainer; he is a true mentor who imparts valuable knowledge with a unique approach.
The training provided a comprehensive understanding of the fundamentals of product ownership, which are essential for anyone looking to excel in this role. However, what set this training apart was Paul's emphasis on the overall philosophy that product owners should embody to effectively manage their day-to-day activities within a Scrum framework.
Paul's insights were not only practical but also deeply thoughtful, highlighting the importance of empathy, communication, and emotional intelligence in product ownership. This holistic approach to training ensures that we, as product owners, are not just equipped with technical skills but are also prepared to foster a collaborative and positive team environment.
I am incredibly grateful for the knowledge and wisdom Paul shared. His ability to connect the dots between technical know-how and emotional intelligence has truly enhanced my perspective and approach towards product ownership. I highly recommend Paul Ralton's training to anyone seeking a profound and well-rounded understanding of Scrum Agile principles.
As a result of studing, prepping and processing all the valuable information obtained by the training, I have also managed to gain my PSPO I certification successfully.
I highly recommend for anyone who is looking to expand their knowledge in the field.

There was enough time to ask questions and clarification and Paul ensured he was available before and after the course for any one to one time required.

You also gave us lots of great takeaways for later reading and self learnings to apply the knowledge at our work environment as well as to pass the test. Thanks!

Great Experience
Paul was a great instructor for this course. He was knowledgeable about the topic as well as it's contextual applications and left room for us as a class to discuss topics. The course was delivered at a steady pace, with plenty of opportunities for questions or further discussions

It is not only a theoretical course
It is not only a theoretical course. They have a lot of good exercises. The mentality is no question is a stupid question.
Each person has the possibility to share their own experiences

I thought it was a good course and left…
I thought it was a good course and left quite light at the end. The session had a good mix of break out sessions which was a good opportunity to mix with others during the two days.
