Dear Alphonse,
Thank you for your feedback. Comments always help to improve course content

Thank you for your feedback. Comments always help to improve course content
I shall certainly take this point of view into account when delivering 'advanced' level courses on XTM. This course however is about 'Getting started'
The course description mentioned several points, remember?
1 - Introduction to CAT technologies: what is a translation memory (TM) & how to use it 2 - Introduction to CAT technologies: what is a glossary & how to use it
This is why I talked about TMs, because it was part of the course description.
One of the objectives of the course was to be able to set up an account. This is why I talked about logins and so on, to make sure every attendee can set up an account after the course.
3 - Overview of the XTM application
This point was covered.
4 - Creating a project with XTM
This point was covered too. You even had screenshots.
5 - Translating files in the XTM workbench making use of the most common features 6 - Checking your translation with XTM 7 - Delivering the finished translation
These points were covered too and I explained in details the most common features. If you consider the webinar is a one hour format, and there was 10 minutes for questions about XTM plus 15 minutes explaining the XTM features as such during the presentation, I should say the webinar is very much matching the course description, don't you think, JohnAlphonse?

Dear Marie, Thanks a lot for your feedback. Trainers are always keen on receiving feedback so that they may adapt their content to attendees' expectations. Actually, I am very surprised that you didn't expect the first part of the presentation to cover the topic of CAT tools and what a TM is because the course description clearly mentioned the program of study : 1 - Introduction to CAT technologies: what is a translation memory (TM) & how to use it 2...

In this respect, I should say the webinar is very much matching the course description. You are probably an advanced user of CAT technology, Mary... but this course had no prerequisite and was designed also for people who are 'getting started' with CAT tools. Nevertheless, I shall certainly take your point of view into account when delivering 'advanced' level courses on XTM. This course, if you remember the title, is about 'Getting started' and two out of the four learning objectives were: - Introduction to CAT technologies: what is a translation memory (TM) - Overview of the application I believe it is normal to spend the first half of the presentation talking about the first two objectives and the second half of the presentation talking about the other two objectives to make it balanced, don't you think Marie?
