Modules were well explained with images, and very easy to understand.
The class was great. I had lots of fun thank you.
The mandatory training wasn’t as bad as some. I liked the visual pictures and also reading the closed caption as I listened to the trainer.
Very informative and helpful.
Not bad like price
pre Siri level of AI sounding voice. The creators didnt even take the time to record a real human… advertised as “minority and woman owned”, this should never be something to profit off of, and im a minority who owns a business. Test was full of “gatcha” type questions.
One less because sometimes the audio would glitch out. I don’t know if that was because I was doing it through a phone instead of a computer but it did not hinder learning and was only a little frustrating since I could reload and it would be fixed or I could read the subtitles.
Very easy to follow, engage and understand. Love that it is woman and minority owned!
I thought the exam was easy because I work in the kitchen so I know all the dos and donts.
Great course
This was easy and quick to do, alot of these should be common sense, just take notes and write down any numbers you hear in the modules. great site.
