Pragmatic approaches and clarification on when statistics is useful and when not. Perfect guidance through the official guidances out there and pointing out where they are sometimes contradictory and therefore confusing during application in daily work. Very honorable teacher and very good at making complex things understandable. As the head is spinning after such intense training, the hand-outs and workshop documentation given will help in having the learned content re-called

★★★★★

James provided a comprehensive, detailed, and complete view of Annex 1 updates, tied it to QRM and to PICS guidance. He delivered the material in an easy-to-understand format, and we did not experience any problems with the streaming. The slide material provided will be very useful as a reference.
