It was fun and easy training
It was easy and fun
This was extremely easy, informative, and understandable. It was not insanely time consuming and I was able to easily retain information. I enjoyed the short videos and how it was interactive at times. If you watch all of the videos, you will easily be able to pass the end exam. 10/10 would recommend.
