This is a course which I enjoyed. It gave a good insight of the learning methodologies which we have often heard of but not given due importance. Also, the brain facts is cool :) My 5/5 to this course

The best course so far. I feel like this course actually showed us things we would be doing day to day in the workplace. It's nice to problem solve since that will probably be a big chunk of the job.

A hard course when you pass the weeks on storage and mangement. The struggle is the Active Directory and learning how to implement policy and data recovery plans. This was great course and I learned so much.

It got me going from a zero from the start of my internship as to an eight in a month of starting the same. Everyone should give it a shot to understand systems better and an organisation with IT better.

Very interesting to see how systems are managed in the backend. You definively have to think around corners in some places. But the tools are very helpful to make things clear and work a little less hard.

This course was great in giving theoratical knowleddge in system adminisitration. But I would prefer, if there would be more hands-on experience related to Active Directory and how to manage employees.

It was good. A lot of information, but just the basics of each. IF everyone took each piece of information here and studied further, they would be System Administration "leaders". Good capstone course.

Videos are short and precise to the point.

Reading source materials are credible.

Qwiklabs are just like real life work environment.

Thanks for Instructor!!!

This was among the more detail-oriented courses in the certificate so expect to take copious notes. I really enjoyed the exercises at the end of each week and can't wait to put this stuff to use.
