Reviews
The exit certified aws course provided a good introduction to the tools available on aws.
Topics, material and specially instructor (Graham Godfrey) was beyond my expectations.
Exit certified was great as it is very in depth and hands on learning which made it very easy to learn this type of work.
Thank Tech Data for sponsoring this course you really take care of your partners.
Courseware was effective but would like to have some PDF material on BPML and XPATH
