Reviews
I think the platform is very good and look forward to taking my next course in early October.
The labs and course material gave me valuable insights into cloud security architecture
The training was very good to understand the concepts and how to set up things .
This course gave me a clearer understanding of the AWS cloud architecture.
Course was great and the instructor had an answer for anything that was asked during the course.
