Excellent training delivered by Harley. Great practical examples to wrap around the theoretical input, and delivered with consideration to each candidates background. Thank you, Harley!
Overall Excellent. Andrew delivered the training course really well. He was patient when explaining new concepts and had good anecdotes to help explain the theory.
Keith was great at his job. able to answer every question and bring in difference examples. Also loved the jokes around it as well.
Very informative and knowledgeable, I wasn't sure how I was doing on my own, but after the training with Keith, I am a lot more confident regarding the course.

I am ready for the exam and I had an excellent week of learning. Thank you, Andrew! (Overall Excellent).
