Very well organized. All the course documents, presentations, meetings worked well.

Interesting real world examples and scenarios covered in the training, brought some new perspectives to light.

I took a 1-day AWS Essential. It was too short and too much materials. It is a good overview and exposure overall. I like the lab materials, and the console worked flawlessly without any issue. Good preparation!!

The entire AWS Essentials Course was great! ExitCertified supplied everything we need ahead of time and all went smoothly.

The training was excellent which is what I expecting for Amazon software training.
