the course is good, covers many aspects, wish the lab is a little bit more in depth

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

I like their training. A lot of material covered. The labs are very good. l learned a lot.

Instructor was great, course was mostly very good except for too much focus on pricing

great class and packed with material, would have lived to spread it more into many days but overall very informative.
