The course is alright. Required learning by my employer and mostly knowledge I already know or don't need to know in any great detail. My only real gripe is the intro and outro clip on every video. 69 videos x 2 clips per video x 10 seconds per clip is 1380 seconds... or 23 minutes of my time spent watching the intro and outro clip. It adds up, and gets tiresome on content that is already difficult to make interesting.

Explains the concepts and reasoning first before diving into technical aspects.
By Terry Terrell on 11/5/2020
Good info but there are some portions of video where instructor is explaining something with his hands to articulate a point but the screen is on a slideshow. Other than that good stuff so far.
By Ansu Davies on 10/29/2018
Well I think the course is interesting but would need more time to grab the concept and then start to put it into practice.
By Colleen Johnson on 2/24/2018
Everything has been mapped out for the student. It is easy to follow and easy to read!
By Colleen M. Johnson on 12/25/2017
I left this rating because the instructor is very clear in his presentations of the seven levels of the OSI Model!
By Gary Partner on 8/2/2017
It's good, and the instructor is clearly very knowledgeable about the material. There is no hands-on however, which is very helpful in learning. Labs should be a part of every course.
By Tudor Balan on 3/12/2017
nice. He knows his stuff. Except for 2 at power 0 is not 0. update: he goes too fast through the information. update 2: It's hard to learn something from this
By Bryan Bushu on 3/9/2017
wish there were some exam type questions at the end of each session so learners can judge how ready they are for the exams
By Faisal Q. on 12/14/2016
