The trainer effort to add easy to understand terminology to explains a topic especially when it comes to technical related methodology, The trainer ensures that trainee are well informed on the critical areas / topics so that I give more focus. Trainer can provide more Q&A, this is how I remember a topic.

the content flow is what I like most about the course.
Chin Ann Tan –
Happy to see there are practical lab materials. The virtual environment is great. I feel it’s too much detail for a fundamental course. this course is probably suited for the practitioner level. I register for awareness purposes but it seems to be much more than expected.
Lavakusan Ganeson –
Learning new terms and technologies. The duration – 3 days is too fast to adapt the knowledge.

Combination of theory and hands on exercise (labs). Trainer should mandate the lab hands on on daily basis to enhance learning experience.
