Reviews

This was effective way to provide a ton of information in a short time period.

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.

Very good company. I've done technical trainings at their facility in downtown Montreal in the past and I'Ve always appreciated them.

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

The technical data in the AWS Solutions Architect course was very thorough.
