Great Labs
Excellent notes provided by instructor and take home booklet is a useful reference
This class covered topics in a clear concise manner going through several facets that kubernetes offered.
This has been the most beneficial training I have received from a course. The instructor was willing to take extra time to go over the material if questions were asked. In addition, if we had extra time the instructor was willing to answer kubernetes related questions even if it was something not directly coveredin the course.
