There's no way you truly think an 8.5 hour powerpoint lecture is an effective way for people to learn.

So far this a refresher for me. But sometimes the introductions to a subject are more helpful than expected.

I learned a lot about azure, the courses lectures weren’t overwhelming, and I loved that there were demonstrations after each lecture. The only thing I struggled with was the conflict resolution codes, and had to watch it a few times to grasp the concept, on if it’s hub or member related. After I adjusted my mind, I was able to understand how to select which one depending on the topic.

I was completely overwhelmed with this. I was driving the bus to nowhere. This is like a semester-long course....not 8 hours!

It was frustrating to choose a course that marketed itself as an introduction for beginners, but come to find out that just a few slides in it was recommended that this course is best if you already have some SQL knowledge. I have no SQL knowledge, so it was very hard for me to follow along as it skipped from place to place very fast, and the verbiage was very tech heavy and hard to understand as someone not in the tech field.

I wanted him to slow down a little bit and go into detail about each specific category. It is a little hard to understand him because of the accent but the content and his enthusiasm is amazing.

It feels like a slow start. definitions in the 1st section felt like a dictionary explanation. Better if they were spelled out in English (its a begineers course) - cloud computing is the provision of computing services from the cloud (a collection of devices, or computing resources, typically owned by someone else and delivered through the internet) Its most commonly compared with on premis where you're connected to physical device in your own building or private network.

I cannot express how much of a waste of my time this class was....The instructor seemed like he knew his stuff and the live demos were probably good...but for the life of me I cannot understand how any of the content of this course is relevant to a certification in Customer Success.

so far it has been good and would be great if you show complete options with Demo by taking subscription.

It was ok. A lot of the information could have been included in a how-to guide. Some topics were glossed over since the instructor only had a trial or sample version.
