The course effectively deals with one of the biggest problems with the 'IT' world: Speaking in another language that non-tech outsiders don't understand. Some people may feel that it is too simplistic and slow paced, however, they lack the above understanding. Thank you for your efforts!" - Rad"Wonderful entry level course.

By Nino Kaplanovi on 9/27/2020

Nice base for attending for example CCNA course. Thank you.

By Darian Lee on 9/22/2020

I used this course primarily to understand the basics of networking and subnetting. Though it's mentioned there's no real deep diving into the advanced topics, it gave me a great starting point in understanding the more technical aspects of networks and how to subnet them. Would recommend for anyone who's interested in learning networking without being overwhelmed with advanced detail!

By Jimmy Chandler on 9/20/2020

This is a good high level conceptual course, but lacks hands-on implementation exercises or examples.

By Mark Henze on 9/18/2020

Lengthy and comprehensive ... A little bit repetitive and verbose in spots, but very well done. I had a expected a bit more on some simpler Windows home or smaller office networks, including intranet security, folder sharing and user authority set up.
