The answer is
しょかん
shokan
所感
Understand the meaning
English translationPersonal impressions
A person’s impressions or feelings. At work, it can introduce reflections after training or a visit. It concerns how someone experienced an event rather than just what happened.
See it in a sentence
研修を終え、参加者はそれぞれの所感を短く述べた。After the training, each participant briefly shared their impressions.
A way to remember
所 can be read tokoro elsewhere, but here it is sho. 感 is kan and has 心 at the bottom.

Add a reason for your impression
Use 所感を述べる or 研修の所感. Instead of simply saying something was good, identify a memorable moment and explain why it mattered to you.
例：見学後の所感として、作業の前に確認の時間を取る大切さを感じたと伝えた。
In my impressions after the visit, I said I had come to appreciate taking time to check things before starting work.
Separate facts from personal impressions
In a report, separating what you observed from how you felt makes the account clearer. 所感 refers to the latter. Avoid assuming that everyone had the same reaction.
