Reviews

Although there seemed to be too many links for the course, everything worked smoothly.

Great company -- easy to sign up and very organized. Loved my teacher and class overall.

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

great class and packed with material, would have lived to spread it more into many days but overall very informative.

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