Reviews
had a good time with the course, however some topics were left out due to the compact amount of time for training.
Good training material and good instruction. More time needs to be provided for the lab work.
Overall it was a good bootcamp. A lot to cover so it is understandable that the pace had to be a little fast.
Great instructor, clear and concise course. Labs were easy to follow and worked perfectly.
I didn't have any problem navigating Exitcertified website or lab material at all.
