Reviews

The training was great . But i expected some of the Networking concepts would be covered in this certification .

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

ExitCertified gave a great course on AWS that covered all of the basics in depth with good lab materials.

Fantastic and great training. Tons of hands-on labs to really make you understand the material being thought.

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