  Walter L. Martinez Aug 05 2003 I really enjoy the CCSE class that you taught and I am very happy for the results and your willingness to be sure that we learned and practice every aspect of Check Point. You even went beyond your teaching itinerary and let us question you about CCSA misunderstandings and make clear to us point by point of Check Point. I will enjoy to take another class of Check Point with you because you are a such good teacher. I also appreciate what NetCom has given us throughout every class and made sure that we attended and did not miss any classes that will be very important in our lives.

  Rajiv Singh Aug 05 2003 The CCSA & CCSE class was one of my better decisions in life. My instructor was Akash Bhatia, a young tech veteran. NetCom is a pretty professional institute and the instructor was more than helpful in solving everybody's queries. He's also good at reading what's on the student's mind and knows before hand when something goes over your head. All in all, it's a great class for beginners and experienced professionals who wish to delve deeper into Network Security and Firewalls.
