ExitCertified was a great. They gave me all the materials and information I needed ahead of time to prepare for the course.

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

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

Good Course. We covered a lot of material in a short amount of time. This course had useful labs that built upon each other.

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