Reviews

Good training materials and lecture. And hands on lab and the instructor guiding was good.

ExitCertified gave me some good trainings and I got to learn through doing labs.

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

Topics, material and specially instructor (Graham Godfrey) was beyond my expectations.

Exit certified was great as it is very in depth and hands on learning which made it very easy to learn this type of work.
