Do you have any other comments, questions or concerns?
I have taken this seminar every year, and it is very informative. However, I think there is too much information squeezed into the time, and the presenter does move very quickly, making it almost impossible to take notes. The seminar almost always goes over the time. Perhaps this would be better presented as a 2 hour webinar rather than 1 hour 40 minutes.

Do you have any other comments, questions or concerns?
I would prefer better descriptions of what the course will entail before registering. I felt fairly misled by the description provided online. Now only a small fraction of the information will be relevant for our business.

Do you have any other comments, questions or concerns?
There was too much talk about AI but not how it would actually integrate into AP. Also, I think it was skewed towards Manufacturing and Retail.
