Great company -- easy to sign up and very organized. Loved my teacher and class overall.

The tool provided to practice the course teachings is very functional and easy to use.

Class was very informative, although one lab didnt but will try again later

Great class I learned a great deal from the material. There would seem to a large amount that I need to learn about.

ExitCertified gave me some good trainings and I got to learn through doing labs.
