I Enjoyed My Networking Course and now have real life experience, Knowledge and expectations as to what is to be expected in a field like Networking.
Overall, I found that this course was helpful to new students. Eric was very helpful in guiding students to the right answers without always give the answer out right. After teaching in a past job this is quality that is hard to teach but can be found in a person that is a natural teacher.
As mentioned in the previous survey taken. I am extremely disappointed by the way i was pulled in and so to speak recruited into the program. i was never interested in A+, Net+ and especially not getting a job in the IT area, which i clearly stated to Michelle who catfished me saying i will do cybersecurity and receive a minimum paying job for $30/hour. I do not want to take the actual exams for this and if I'm forced to will retaliate. Because i even wrote in the additional funding request i am excited to learn about cybersecurity and learn how to protect my system and have a meaning in the work field.
