reviews on our popular courses
The trainer Marco Mulder was sure about the topic and shared his knowledge and experience regarding Scrum on how to be a good Product Owner. From engaging with the attendees to taking time to answer all the questions, everything went smoothly and it was great. It's my second time attending a course from KnowledgeHut, and I would definitely attend more in the future.

The course was amazing. It taught me that 'what you can learn is some much more than what you think you already know'.
Kevin O'Shaughnessy
Marco was very knowledgable and listened to everyone's questions. I felt that he provided more information than we could even absorb and no one left with unanswered questions. I would highly recommend going to one of the trainings with Marco Mulder. He covered all the mandatory topics and at the same time left room for the trainees' queries.

I had attended the PSPO training by KnowledgeHut. The trainer was Sumeet Madan and the training was really helpful as it was practical-based. The training was well-organized and completed well on time. Sumeet Madan was a good trainer and was always available even after the training to clarify our doubts
