Reviews

had a good time with the course, however some topics were left out due to the compact amount of time for training.

Great class I learned a great deal from the material. There would seem to a large amount that I need to learn about.

ExitCertified was a great. They gave me all the materials and information I needed ahead of time to prepare for the course.

The technical data in the AWS Solutions Architect course was very thorough.

Overall ExitCertified is a great training provider and the remote learning is as effective as in person.
