Course - Rust Advanced
The trainer's knowledge is very extensive, and their engagement in the conversation and transmission of knowledge is enormous. Good contact with participants. The materials are very well prepared, with a lot of slides, exercise descriptions, and it was clear that there were significant preparations for the training. Despite my comments, I still rate the training very highly. My comments are merely suggestions on how to improve the training, which was already at a very good level. In my opinion, with participants from the C# area and the introduced corrections, the training can be at an ideal level ;-)
