Reviews
Good training material and good instruction. More time needs to be provided for the lab work.
Provided good amount of material and a great instructor to teach the material.
Sean is the very good instructor. I would like to take his class again in the future.
great class and packed with material, would have lived to spread it more into many days but overall very informative.
Easy to work with. Learning material pdfs were able to be printed out in color which was very nice to write on.
