This was really time-consuming but it was really worth learning. Although in the end, it seems to be very basic things, they would be essential through whatever you want to accomplish in the IT field.

This course was amazing and helped me understand so much more about networking, things I never thought I would know or understand. Very fulfilling and I can't wait to use this knowledge going forward.

This is great material to learn, taught in the worst possible way. Use any other material you can find to learn the material because this course is a terrible learning source.

Horribly delivered content. I will be seeking external sources to further my basic knowledge on this area as this course fell dramatically short in engagement.

The course is great until you reach week 6 and can't pass the quiz because there's a bug and now you can no longer receive a certificate of completion.

Worst course I have ever taken in my life. Could not stay awake from the dreadful videos. Left with no real retention of any useful knowledge at all!

The test contains a lot of question which has differing opinions online, from technical and academical standpoint, especially about OSI layers.

Extremely complicated information packed into very dense segments. Not easy to understand in the slightest, and certainly not for beginners.

Waaaaaaay too in-depth for an entry-level course. Learning what you need to know is impossible without help from outside resources.

extremely tough, the videos are too quick for a beginner and use a lot of terminology. I had too look online for other resources.
