Reviews

Good training material and good instruction. More time needs to be provided for the lab work.

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

This course gave me a clearer understanding of the AWS cloud architecture.

Great class I learned a great deal from the material. There would seem to a large amount that I need to learn about.
