ACI Learning Reviews

the course was good and a lot of information. i wish that the class was drawn out over maybe three or 4 weeks. some labs were confusing on test out, for someone that has never built a computer i felt lost when we had to plug in pins and connectors before i even had a clue what they were.

The instructor was well informed but this class is not for beginners or someone brand new to networks. Half of the time i was lost and i dont know if i will pass the assessment. This class should at least be 4 weeks long and not start at 7 pm and last until 11pm. People have full time jobs and most of the material is not mac friendly. As a matter of fact i could not do ANY labs because the program does not work with mac computers. And i dont have money to purchase a new computer in such a short period of time.

I wish I would have been in the classroom for this type of course.

More time is needed. Two weeks is not long enough to take in and digest the information.

This course should be much later in the academic journey for IT professionals. I just wasn't prepared and became lost very quickly. I would have felt more comfortable starting with familiar material, working through some labs on that familiar material and then advancing into more complex materials.

This course should be 1 week longer to slow down enough to allow for greater explanation of topics. Everything about this course felt rushed and was like getting fed with a firehose. Im not sure how much I will be able to retain for the test without SIGNIFICANT personal study. This was very reminiscent of "bootcamps" I have previously attended in my professional career.

The eBook references several labs in Boson NetSim which we didn't have access to. It was extremely difficult (even with a large monitor) to see what the instructor was demonstrating as we couldn't perform the lab ourselves. Many students complained of this very same thing. It is very difficult to learn commands if you're not making them yourself and seein the outcome of your inputs.

Personally I will have to repeat this class. I didn't meet the objective of this class. The instructor should tailor more of the teaching for students to pass. Obviously, little guidance can be given for the lab work. Once a student is able to pass and get certification, and possibly get the job. more training can be conducted. The materials is just too much for 10 days. Especially those of us working full time

I just feel again the instructor could of been more prepared with the class and reviewed with us instead of just telling us to do a self study. Sometimes went off topic and went to fast to understand.

I believe the instructor did an awesome job. He was very knowledgeable and kept the class interesting. He went above and beyond in trying to help students understand and to help students if they were stuck. I enjoyed having him as an instructor.
