This was a good program to get prepared for the solutions architect associate exam.

it was good and very informative. Instructure covered everything in detail.

my experince was great from the day i regetered to the actuall day of the class.

Topics, material and specially instructor (Graham Godfrey) was beyond my expectations.

The instructor really took his time and made sure I was able to understand the concepts.
