Thank you ExitCertified (Tech Data) for the professional work and continuous support to your partners.
I have had three AWS training classes with ExitCertified and I have been extremely satisfied with every class. They presented the information and architecture in a very logical manner that made it easier for me to learn.
The training provides big picture for AWS and guideline to do further investigation in detail.
ExitCertified (Kelly & her team) were very responsive to all the pre-enrollment inquiries and sharing the TOCs etc. The course materials arrived on time, the classroom instructions were very clear and concise. And the staff was available always to help and support. Overall, a very good experience.
