This is a great review course and very informational.
Easy to understand and educational
a
It’s fine – it gets the job done in an hour and change, and is officially certified. That’s all you need. However, the automated voice totally sucks. Right at the end, the “health inspector” character says that AAA is a woman & minority owned business. If that’s the case, then this business should hire a woman or minority voice actor to narrate the course instead of the robot.
Everything went good for me it really wasn’t to long, it was my first time doing thing and I like how it had short videos but kinda a lot of videos behind it but you aren’t getting bored watching it.
The course was illustrated, interactive, and user-friendly.
