Reviews

Very good company. I've done technical trainings at their facility in downtown Montreal in the past and I'Ve always appreciated them.

Good Course. We covered a lot of material in a short amount of time. This course had useful labs that built upon each other.

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

The format of the class was concise. I learned new skills to use at my workplace.

Although there seemed to be too many links for the course, everything worked smoothly.
