Testimonials
I was looking for a certification course that would allow me not just to earn a certification, but would open the door to a wide range of tools, techniques, knowledge and experiences, that would lead me beyond my comfort zone. The course met my expectations and made me go beyond what I expected...experience is not gained by reading books alone, rather by "rolling up your sleeves," and this is what I was looking for.
