AI summary of reviews

Consistently knowledgeable, approachable trainers are the provider’s standout strength, with attendees valuing clear explanations, real-world examples, patience and support that build confidence. They find the teaching engaging and practical, supported by labs, videos, quizzes and flexible online resources, and say the learning strengthens certification readiness, troubleshooting skills and job searches. Career guidance, including CV, LinkedIn and interview advice, also proves useful. Some feel the accelerated timetable and lab/platform design leave too little time for hands-on practice.

This "time" element should have been rectified, modified, and implemented prior to initiating classes.

The low rating for me personally was for What I was expecting vs. What I got. Not dissappointed and the information given but was looking for something else prior to enrollment. Great so far!!

Response: I am delighted that you found the course worthwhile. We look forward to seeing you on your next ACI Learning course

Did not use any of the materials provided other than the ITIL4 phone app to practice.

Ton of info in a short time. Good content. A little bit scattered at times.

This course may need an additional 3-4 days in order to ensure the students have a firm understanding of the material.

I think if someone does not have IT experience they should not start with this course or just don't do the 5 days straight because it is a ton of information.

It is hard to say if the time allotted was enough or if it achieved its stated objective since I haven't taken the actual Security + Comptia cert test :) I feel much better prepared and the course material being available will help. I was able to complete all but 1 lab and it was a minor one to me. For some I think they would need this in a 2 week course in order to grasp concepts and keep up with labs and actually understand a lot of the terminology. May consider a 1 week for those with IT backgrounds or experience with Computers while while those starting off on this path for the first time offer a 2 week course to make sure they understand key concepts.

The most significant difficulty I had was the transition to using a Zoom model of remote learning with all the tools available. I was not prepared either mentally or physically for a lot of what was presented. The Zoom model (when Students video and audio are OFF/Muted, doesn't seem to promote student interaction. Occasionally the instructor, although excellent in his demeanor/presentation and competency, felt inaccessible for one on one counseling/guidance. I have not attended remote learning activities such as this since 2008 and it proved to make the transition quite difficult. Maybe it would have been easier for me to absorb the material in 4hr increments over a two week period instead. ITIL is very cerebral and less hands on so the concepts were difficult to relate to the idea of IT at first however, eventually it began to sink in. Unfortunately i feel it was a bit too late. Over time I had come to understand the core of it but I believe the class could benefit greatly from the videos being implemented directly into the presentation and not as an aside. If this is not possible then at the very least ANIMATE the slides to match the diagrams presented for the ITIL Guiding Principle/ framework/processes and service value chains. If a static picture is worth a thousand words...Animations of that picture will be worth many less words and thus makes the presentation more efficient/valuable.

Response: We very much appreciate the time and thoughtfulness you put in this review. We are happy to hear that you received some great information from the course. We thank you for your other feedback as well, as it will help develop the course further, and help us continue to improve delivery and curriculum. We understand the challenges that virtual learning can present sometimes, and we are working on improving that experience.

Overall time is the factor. When the recruiter reached out to me she didn't mention that even though it is a short course that you could resist for a while after your first class & that you would have access to the resources as well as the campus. Which knowing in advance would have helped me feel more at ease with the overwhelming information we started receiving on our first day. So far I love this school for what it's doing in listening and changing for our needs. I feel grateful I took the step and though I will have to resist network 1&2 I like that it will keep the semi-fast pace vibe (but with the extension we asked for). I'm hoping I'll just have to resist those two so I can take my exams by the beginning of November.
