I really admire Trainer's patience for all the people who were asking him to repeat something 4-5 times. I also believe that he has great knowledge about the topic, but like said above, we didn't spend enough time on this. Moreover, it was good it was hands-on training, where we could practice in real time what we're taught, but again, I'd like to know more about the PowerApps, not about SharePoint, as I'm really familiar with that one, and if I wanted to learn more, I'd probably just choose a training for the SharePoint, not PowerApps.
