Like guiding through network and security elements ... fast. Challenging and rich in content but not going into too deep. The following courses in the certificate will delve deeper, I imagine.

the course was good but Chris the instructor was awful. He cannot be a good teacher. He just reads out the notes very fast.

I did not like the word out on the streets is this does not really help you with a job.

It's ok, I guess. I don't feel confident that I am absorbing all the material, though.

Good course if you learn by definitions but horrible for learning hands on! You get zero hands on learning. It's all definition based learning! I give it one star. Nothing but videos and glossary based learning, no real time hands on stuff here!
