Reviews

The class and material is good. I think some of the software needs to be updated.

Labs and the study materials provided for Architecting on AWS course are very easy to understand and explains all the topics required to pass the Associate certification.

Some Labs are very good but some steps it ask to update but its already updated, but overall its very good training.

I was very pleased with the course setup by ExitCertified and the instructor.

The class was very vast paced however the teacher was very good at checking in on us while giving us time to complete the labs.
