Content looks good. However, the user experience for the presentation can be improved. It is not enjoyable when the page loads every 1-2mins since each page of slide are presented separately.

generally had most of the mile2 topics covered; quiz questions were similar to the CDRE exam; study book included when purchasing exam; use the study guide in conjunction with this course for successful outcome

A lot of reading from the slides by the instructor. Would rather video or real world examples to demonstrate what the slide is stating vs. reading the slides and material which I can do on my own time.
