Attendees comments
"I liked the very personable course leader and his chosen seminar content and the way it was explained. I got a very comprehensive overview of risk management in general. The insights into the existing standards and distribution chapters were particularly important for me and accordingly useful. I am very satisfied with the planning, course and general content of the seminar and will be attending further seminars in the future."

"I particularly liked the fact that Mr. Knobloch gave a lot of room for questions and discussions and summarized them again with his learning materials. On the one hand, you could exchange tips and experiences with the other participants, but also better understand topics from other participants that did not affect you through Mr. Knobloch's additional explanations. Although it was a more general training , there was a lot of new information that I will take time to process. And his expertise was also very impressive."

"There were many practical references and recommendations on how to deal with the topic of risk management in reality. The time spent on the training was very well invested."

"I particularly liked the content, the methodology and the very competent and likeable lecturer. I also had good experiences at previous seminars. The price/performance ratio is right!"

"Mr. Knobloch is competent, friendly, responds flexibly to practical topics/questions and has comprehensible teaching material. All in all, a great package, characterized by competence and a top balance between practical relevance and theory."

"Basically, everything was explained very well and clearly. In addition, the exchange of experiences within the discussions. Really great training all round!"

"The specialist knowledge is conveyed in an understandable way and the learning environment is pleasant. I liked the simplification of the subject matter and the individual explanation of questions while at the same time the participants were willing to discuss."

"It was a very good trainer, very structured documents, very good organization (technology and technical documents) and a good mix of content."

"I really liked the good structure and examples. I thought it was great, so I've already recommended it to others."

"What was special was how the content was conveyed, that we started from scratch and that each company division was addressed in particular."
