    Testimonials

    I have been in the IT industry for over 17 years working as a Senior Project Manager for Logica and am now Agile Project Director for Logitak Ltd. Of all the trainers in the U.K. , I have chosen to repeatedly go back to RADTAC (Certified Agile Project Manager, Certified ScrumMaster and now the Certified Scrum Developer course) for three reasons : 1) the quality of their courses is exceptional 2) their trainers are what can only be described as Thought Leaders, and 3) mostly significantly, they place an unusual emphasis on great customer service at every stage, even post course completion. RADTAC have taken the UK initiative in introducing the Certified Scrum Developer Course in the United Kingdom, and in that respect are helping promote key Agile XP practices which are still widely misunderstood. If you wish to contact me directly to discuss this or anything else, feel free to do so at : http://www.linkedin.com/in/ahmedasyed
