Probably one of the best online courses I have attended. My lecturer was experienced and more than qualified for the role. Content was solid with lots of hands on, the notes were clear and concise and more importantly the web portal was user-friendly and had all the necessary information loaded in a timely manner. I would recommend this to anyone.
