Instructor Details

Kevin Brown

I have been in the technology field for more than 20 years.  I have been a high performing Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT) since 2000 and a Cisco Certified Systems Instructor since 2006.  I began my career in telecommunications more than 20 years ago.  Since then I have worked as a Systems Admin, Network Admin, System integrator, Solutions Architect, and CTO. My courses are not presentations that rely on slides to explain concepts.  My goal is to demonstrate every concept covered, instead of using slides that cover theory, we will use the interface to configure every setting that is discussed.  In my view, if you do not know how to complete a task that a course covered, that course was not beneficial.  I will make sure that you know how to complete each task and the various configurations for those tasks.

the writing on the screen for every slide is so sloppy and unreadable, so its unnecessary. This course could be a 4 star course, but since i cant make out any of that writing it was a waste of time

The presentation is amazing, simplified and easy to understand. I have no doubt, I will pass my certification once I complete the course.

It would have been awesome if at the end of each chapter there would have been test, but i'm glad there's a test exam at the end of the course.

By Barbara Woods on 1/25/2023

This course was definitely a good match thus far in which I like that resources have been provided for us to follow along and perform some of the same tasks as the instructor during the training.
