Reviews

The course was informative, and I learnt a new skill. The instructor was up to the point.

Class was easy to sign up for and ExitCertified provided very good communication

This is my second course with ExitCertified. This course exceeded my expectations. The teacher was great and the class was fun.

I registered a day before class and am happy that I received all the materials and links in time for the class. Thanks.

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