Reviews

Sean is the very good instructor. I would like to take his class again in the future.

The training was good but needed the basic skills of maximo before getting deep in the configuration of it.

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

The class covered the concepts needed for the AWS Cloud Practitioner Certification.

Instructor was great, course was mostly very good except for too much focus on pricing
