Reviews

The training was very good to understand the concepts and how to set up things .

Provided good amount of material and a great instructor to teach the material.

The class was very vast paced however the teacher was very good at checking in on us while giving us time to complete the labs.

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

I didn't have any problem navigating Exitcertified website or lab material at all.
