Good training. A lot to take in for the short amount of time we have though

Great company -- easy to sign up and very organized. Loved my teacher and class overall.

I think the platform is very good and look forward to taking my next course in early October.

I liked the pace of the course. I like that I have more than instance to use the lab.

it was good and very informative. Instructure covered everything in detail.
