Reviews
I registered a day before class and am happy that I received all the materials and links in time for the class. Thanks.
Great company -- easy to sign up and very organized. Loved my teacher and class overall.
This was a good program to get prepared for the solutions architect associate exam.
You get detailed labs to guide you through the technical material giving you a hands on method of learning otherwise difficult material.
The training was good but needed the basic skills of maximo before getting deep in the configuration of it.
