Reviews

Very good company. I've done technical trainings at their facility in downtown Montreal in the past and I'Ve always appreciated them.

Easy to use and exactly what I was looking for. Value for money was exceptional.

ExitCertified gave a great course on AWS that covered all of the basics in depth with good lab materials.

Simply great training provider that I can go for updating/acquiring my skill sets.

The instructor really took his time and made sure I was able to understand the concepts.
