Reviews

Good course. I appreciate the time the instructor put into teaching this class.

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

Overall experiance is very nice. the online training plateform is very advance.

Courseware was effective but would like to have some PDF material on BPML and XPATH

Overall it was a good bootcamp. A lot to cover so it is understandable that the pace had to be a little fast.
