I registered a day before class and am happy that I received all the materials and links in time for the class. Thanks.

The exit certified aws course provided a good introduction to the tools available on aws.

This was effective way to provide a ton of information in a short time period.

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

this class was informative, made me think about certifying for the suse manager cert.
