Reviews

The class and material is good. I think some of the software needs to be updated.

The class covered the concepts needed for the AWS Cloud Practitioner Certification.

Courseware was effective but would like to have some PDF material on BPML and XPATH

Great and very intuitive. Better than the traditional hit the wrong button/lose points.

this class was informative, made me think about certifying for the suse manager cert.
