Informative, useful, easy to understand.

The videos were easy to follow and the summary notes at the end of each section were really useful and a good way to reinforce the learning. The training was short and to the point which fitted in well with my busy days.

Informative, clear, easy to understand. The summary at the end of each section is really helpful for making notes.
