Reviews

Exit certified was great as it is very in depth and hands on learning which made it very easy to learn this type of work.

Easy to work with. Learning material pdfs were able to be printed out in color which was very nice to write on.

the class/lecture was amazing and very easy to understand and was in detail.

Concise and good to follow along. Although it is a lot to take in under a short period of time.

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