Reviews

The training was great . But i expected some of the Networking concepts would be covered in this certification .

Great and very intuitive. Better than the traditional hit the wrong button/lose points.

the interface was super easy to use and the instructions to get ready for the course was also very simple and easy to understand.

Good course. I appreciate the time the instructor put into teaching this class.

It is very good and very simple instructions. almost to much hand holding.
