I think this is a very good high level overview of the devices. It is certainly not detailed enough to pass an NSE test but a very good start for a beginner like me.

Very good, teaches you how to setup a VM in which you can practice

Just Awesome.

O curso entrega aquilo que oference, ou seja, uma apresentao das principais funes e configuraes dos Fortigates UTM. Apesar de que grande parte do curso baseado em verses mais antigas do Forti OS, as explicaes so boas e suficientes para entender o funcionamento da ferramenta. O autor da Romenia (quando comecei o curso eu achei que ele fosse indiano), logo, o seu ingls no to simples de entender, principalmente para mim que no sou fluente (sou brasileiro). Em resumo, um bom curso para aprender ou aperfeioar seus conhecimentos em Fortigate.

The course is a presentation of the main functions and configurations of the Fortigates UTM. Although much of the course is based on older versions of FortiOS, the explanations are good and sufficient to understand how the tool works. The author is from Romania (when I've started the course I thought he was from India), so his English isn't so simple to understand, especially for me ( I'm Brazilian and I'm not fluent in English). Anyway, it's a good course to learn or improve your knowledge in Fortigate.
