Reviews

Instructor, Training material & span of the training is neatly planned.

The class and material is good. I think some of the software needs to be updated.

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

The instructor was thorough and they also provided hands-on demonstrations with labs.

Easy to use and exactly what I was looking for. Value for money was exceptional.
