Reviews
The labs and course material gave me valuable insights into cloud security architecture
Course was great and informative. The instructor had a good flow and was very personable.
great class and packed with material, would have lived to spread it more into many days but overall very informative.
I think the platform is very good and look forward to taking my next course in early October.
Sean is the very good instructor. I would like to take his class again in the future.
