Purchased the course on a Tuesday and Passed the Exam on the Friday, I have recommended this course to my colleagues.
By Amol Ghanwat on 2/9/2026
Explanation is very good. It does not assume anything and overall the explanation starts from the core concepts and basics which is good.
By Sarah Cross on 1/28/2026
This class is a perfect match for me. I am taking this class to obtain my certification in this course. I feel the instructor is very knowledgeable and does a great job explaining each segment.
By Benjamin Dains on 1/15/2026
Incredible course! Extremely knowledgeable instructor and engaging. Very comprehensive. I'm definitely taking the rest of your courses because I learned so much! Thank you.
By Devin Dufrene on 12/23/2025
John's instruction was quick, precise, and to the point. Microsoft seems to be making the job tough with all their changes, but John pointed this out where needed so it was obvious why things didn't quite match up. Very well put together course!
By Brendon C on 11/28/2025
This course was well-paced and did a great job of explaining many technical aspects of Teams and the administrative tasks involved in managing the Teams environment within an organization. The included simulations are nice for getting a bit of exposure to the UI elements for certain tasks when you either don't have an M365 environment to follow along in, or if you don't want to replicate the tasks in a production M365 environment you do have access to.

I do appreacitate the effort the instuctor takes in his course. The level-set intro sections really helped me as I did have gaps in my background.
By Aaron Wilson on 10/31/2025
So far these modules have been very easy to soak in the knowledge and apply the information toward our own Teams/365 admin console.
By Mustafa Ali on 10/13/2025
I recently completed the course, and I must say it was an incredibly rewarding experience. The content was well-structured, engaging, and highly relevant to my learning goals. The instructors demonstrated deep expertise and made complex topics easy to understand through clear explanations and practical examples.

good refresher to reflect on the past...
By Kyle Mattox on 11/22/2020
I do like the fact that he is explaining in both through the portal and powershell
