Does the course schedule include a Lunchbreak?
Lunch is normally an hour long and begins at noon. Coffee, tea, hot chocolate and juice are available all day in the kitchen. Fruit, muffins and bagels are served each morning. There are numerous restaurants near each of our centers, and some popular ones are indicated on the Area Map in the Student Welcome Handbooks - these can be picked up in the lobby or requested from one of our ExitCertified staff.
How can someone reach me during class?
If someone should need to contact you while you are in class, please have them call the center telephone number and leave a message with the receptionist.

We covered a lot of material in three days. This was a real crash course in different AWS Infrastructure.
I appreciated working with the virtual environments and getting hands-on feel for using the product and service.
So far I have been very pleased with the quality and the content of the instruction. This is my second course.
This was an excellent and very informative class. I will recommend it to others. Thank you.
I found this course very helpful as an overview of how AWS Services work together.
