MCCC feedback
● That was hard definitely. But, if I may say I had a very best Mentor
Assessor: I am going to pub now to celebrate it all !!!
● Thanks for the wonderful support and encouragement - 92% close to
perfect, but enough of a margin that everyone knows I'm human. LOL.
● Thank you. And thank you for your encouragement during my certification
process. ...that is why I am glad it is hard, it gives it "recognised value".
● It feels pretty awesome to have completed the MCCC - I feel that the
approach was great and that exams were also well created.
● It has been a tuff course, fun and sometimes not, but certainly proves it has
extremely high value.
● I just want to say thank you again (thank Martin also) for creating this
certification. It feels good to get recognition for something that has quickly
become a FUN obsession.
