Not User Friendly

September 17, 2025

It doesn’t give you a progress bar. It’s overall incredibly hard to navigate and then when you finish it’s really hard to find your certificate. Mine didn’t prompt me to do anything and didn’t show up in the certificate sections so I had to contact customer service.
