  Jan 06 2012 My dreams are coming true each and every day. I love what I do and am proud that companies like IBM are investing in me. I am now the sole IT Field Installer for State Farm. I will be responsible for the entire installation process for the state of Hawaii. I even received my OWN Company issued cellular! I will wrap up training January 6th and head back to Hawaii on the 7th. Barry (Educational Consultant) all the training from NetCom Learning is paying off! I will continue to recommend others to NetCom and I will continue to seek training from NetCom.

  Dec 02 2011 Mr. Brown was very knowledgeable in A+. Answered everything in full and clear detail. All the staff were inviting and accommodating, I've never seen a staff as friendly as NetCom. This A+ course will be my stepping stone for future certifications. This class has motivated me by seeing classmates work hard, giving me the final push to get A+. - Irwin V.

  Oct 17 2011 Class was swell. Emilio was a very knowledgeable instructor, and I got a lot out of being in his class. -Kelli K. Course(s) Taken Security+ 2011 Certification - Boot Camp

  
  

  Oct 17 2011 The class went well. I liked the format of learning the material followed by doing the test prep questions on Thursday. The instructor (Emilio) was great I thought and really appeared to know the content. Most of the people in the class had absolutely no networking experience what-so-ever and Emilio took time to try to explain the fundamentals...even though it still might have been too much for them/us to wrap our heads around. Just the fact that everyone in the class passed (with most of them having NO previous networking experience) was a testament to Emilio's performance and the class material! -Glenn S. Course(s) Taken Security+ 2011 Certification - Boot Camp

  
  

  Oct 17 2011 Emilio is a fantastic instructor. He was able to dynamically inject personal examples of situations he encountered directly relating to the material covered. These examples greatly enhanced the understanding of all of us students. Most of us he instructed are not system administrators, IT specialists or network security specialists. Emilio presented the material in a way that all of understood and comprehended. I cannot say enough about Emilio, he is responsible for all us achieving a passing score on the certification exam. -Jeremy P. Course(s) Taken Security+ 2011 Certification - Boot Camp

  
  

  Oct 14 2011 Excellent attention to detail outstanding results for students in the class. Shared knowledge and experience which was valued by all students. A confident instructor that is dedicated to the job, ensuring students are well trained. INSTRUCTOR OF THE YEAR!! -Ricky J. Course(s) Taken A+ and Network+ Certification

  
  

  Oct 14 2011 I think Amanda is a great teacher and it was great having this class. Course(s) Taken A+ and Network+ Certification
