Reviews

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

The class was very vast paced however the teacher was very good at checking in on us while giving us time to complete the labs.

Instructor, Training material & span of the training is neatly planned.

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

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