Reviews

had a good time with the course, however some topics were left out due to the compact amount of time for training.

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

Some Labs are very good but some steps it ask to update but its already updated, but overall its very good training.

the class/lecture was amazing and very easy to understand and was in detail.

the interface was super easy to use and the instructions to get ready for the course was also very simple and easy to understand.
