Attendees comments
The small group of four participants enabled Prof. Dr. Udo Burchard to present the content in a practical way. The theory was always supplemented by practical examples, which made the material tangible. The content was very exciting and eye-opening for me. Many valuable approaches for everyday work were conveyed, which now need to be implemented. The conference hotel also contributed to the positive atmosphere of the two seminar days. Conclusion: Absolutely recommendable!
