Great basic course of IT. Nice sections that helped pull it all together. My only nit would be that the instructors were all looking to the side, perhaps reading a script? Would have been more personable if they looked straight at the camera.

Really great job at slowly explaining the basics. I moved a little faster because there were certain things I already knew. It's awesome that you can go as fast or slow as you want. And the content that is taught is also tested. Great course.

Decent course that kept my attention and was broken down to manageable sections. If I ever felt overwhelmed it was easy to go back and review the pertinent videos without starting over or wasting considerable time looking for the information.

I knew very little about computer fundamentals, but this course was great! I was able to teach myself the basics of binary, which I don't think I had ever been introduced to in my life! I can honestly say I'm pretty hooked on these courses!

Great course that will prepare you for the A+. I got my A+ before taking this course and if I could do it over again...I'd certainly have taken this course first! I would've gotten so much more out of my A+ education had I taken this prior.

Everything seem to be very well broken down to a very basic level of understanding. I really like having the labs to where we can perform hands on training and not just a step by step learning process. I excited to start my journey into IT.
