Matt is great. Necessary class to help you out in the job market.
This course is so valuable in teaching you the necessary skills that one would need to land a job in todays market. I grew in many ways during this class, such as understanding that I have applicable skills from past experience that directly translate into the IT field. I am happy with the many resources that are provided to the students to help them succeed.
Not an issue to me but every time I opened the slide show it only saved the progress from the first day. Each time I opened the slide show it asked to resume but only had the point saved as what was completed on the first day and I would have to scroll down to the new updated point. Not an issue to me just a flaw in the system.
