Great course, lots of very challenging and useful information. You'll learn about Linux and some of the inner workings of Windows, plus lots of tools and programs that are really useful. Great course!

Very buggy and glitchy courses. Hard to access. Needed support because certain assignments wouldn't load on my PC or laptop.

The Qwiklabs are awful. I cannot pass week 4 Linux and there appears to be no support. Have already wasted hours on this.

Worst course I've ever taken. Pointless and Labs have incorrect instructions which makes it difficult to complete.

So little effort has been put into the organization, proof reading, editing, and presentation of this course. Wow.

The graded modules at the end are actually broken and don't have all the content you need to complete them.

Grading works horribly, interactive assessments are slow, work is not graded properly.
