Advanced raspberry pi requires more days to learn. Advance course for 2 days might be enough. Each module maybe give 2 scenario as the advance requires alot of understanding on how it actually works.
Compile programs and the functions for it. Ex
Vnc - remote desktop
I belief that each lecturer have their preference software to use..
Better to have 1 lecturer to teach as for me ill be taking 5 different course. Worried that i will have 5 different lecturer and if i have a wuestion its hard for me to point out who to send the question to. (Posted on 1/8/2020) - Will Recommend Review by Course Participant/Trainee

Course participants had earlier informed course administrator of their requirements for course-related tools such as the Raspberry Pi starter kit and laptops for in-class hands-on tasks. However, despite the requests being made via email, the tools were not prepared in advance and thus time was spent on such administrative matters during the actual training.

Could you please check the wiring of the motor driver and the DC motor, they were of the wrong wire type, It should be a male to male wire instead of a male to female wire for the DC motor. Also, the soldering of the wires to the DC motor driver were poorly done. I had to borrow the trainer's motor driver and motor to follow the course lessons. Also, the connector for the Raspberry Pi Sense Hat is quite loose, the moment i have to disconnect it with the GPIO pins from the Raspberry Pi, The Sense Hat board came off, leaving the connector on the Raspberry Pi GPIO pins itself. I had to redo the soldering for the motor driver and the Dc motor again just to get it connected easily. One comment on the leads of the resistors, they are too thin for them to be placed into the breadboard which required a bit of force from me to get the resistors to have a good connection on the breadboard.
