Recent Feedback On CAIPSCM

Hi,

My name is Khalil and I have been in the Supply Chain field for 13 years. My current role is Contract Manager, North America for Brookfield Renewable.

The CAIPSCM course was a great opening gate to the world of AI for me.

The content fully met my expectations and was practical, relevant, and easy to apply.

Ronnie Davidson is an amazing facilitator with a wealth of experience. His ability to explain complex concepts in a practical way made a big difference in my learning experience.

This course has already benefited me by helping me prompt more effectively and create flowcharts much more easily.

A major added value was receiving two eBooks for free as part of the course. They are directly related to the material and serve as excellent extra resources, with many ready-to-use sample prompts.

Although I haven’t covered all of them yet, they are extremely valuable.

As future feedback, I believe this course could evolve into a new offering focused on “How to Create a Small Business Using AI.”

The course was truly valuable and enriching. It gave me fresh perspective on how AI can enhance procurement processes, and I feel better equipped to start applying some of these ideas in my role.

Ronnie’s depth of knowledge, combined with his diverse professional background, made the sessions both insightful and highly engaging.

I appreciated the way he incorporated real-life examples to explain complex concepts.

I wish him continued success and I hope our paths cross again, which I am sure they will.
