Clear concise and easy to understand and to put in place
Good
Great course, can finish in a few hours. There is no skipping the videos if youre trying to take note, take them as the video goes and pause the video. If you want to go back on the video you have to rewatch the entire video. Study for the test!

I found the class very informative but the course reviews could be confusing.
Twice questions that were asked but the materials was in the next block.
My feed back would be that the modules could be organized a little better and I wish there was a progress bar you could look at while taking the class.
I found this course to be very informative. It was explained in a way that was easy to understand and very detailed.
