Overall, it was fine. Again though, as more information gets added, more time needs to be added as well.

Overall it's an excellent opportunity. Please look into pulling more info from the Certmaster test.

There is a lot of information put out. I was overwhelmed at times. Little things for me would have helped. Like questions at the end of the modules. I know we can take practice tests but those a the end of the module would help me be able to add that to the brain, even if I had to go and look up the answers.

Response: Thanks for the feedback. We are always looking at ways to improve our training. We are looking for ways to incorporate more directed reviews for each module.

While there is a huge wealth of materials associated with the course and I do think it meets its goals, this death by PowerPoint design is rough. I think it would make more sense to make the general definition memorization on the student and make the actual theory of operation/implementation of concepts the focus of the class, maybe by having the class work through some labs together or something similar. Even with the teacher asking questions this sort of class is very one-sided and difficult to stay engaged with for four hours even with breaks.

Response: Thanks for the feedback. Jonathan and I have already talked about doing more instructor led labs. Can't do them all that way but a few interspersed would definitely help.

Too much material. Two many acronyms.

I've really enjoyed the classes & looked forward to class every morning. All my instructors were knowledgeable, interesting & cared about our success. As much as I enjoyed learning, being someone who is new to IT, I felt overwhelmed by the amount of content that was covered every day. In hindsight, I may have been better served not taking so many classes in such a short time period of 10 weeks.
