Here is some feedback from others on this course's trainer: "A great professional with a polite and friendly approach to the participants. I really appreciated the way she explained each topic with examples from her own career." Gunn Aarli "Irene Koukia is a very approachable person from what I could see and hear, and she shared her valuable ideas and resources with us. I like the way she went into details such as how to present oneself, or where to find a free CAT tool, giving all sorts of links. I would like to thank her for opening my eyes as there are lots of things I didn't realize I could do on my own, such as getting a specialisation free of charge! I can't wait for the release of the recording of the course to go through all the info and get my profile sorted out properly.
