A very informative training.
Great presentation
I enjoyed the course so far. As someone who takes a lot of notes to study, I do wish I could go back in parts of the videos rather than having to re-watch the whole thing for something I misunderstood and couldn’t write down fast enough. But that is no biggie.
I believe it was easy but some details were common sense. 30% of the videos were a waste of time
Pretty simple and this site was the best package.
