I have been very satisfied from day one. I have been to other course providers previously and cannot say that my experience and well being was so looked after as it was at xchange. Starting from the spacious tables and rooms. The convenience of picking favourite operating system, the latest equipment. The convenience of the dual monitor set up, being able to see i tractors screen at all times, the tea, coffee and snacks, the lunch. But most of all the teacher. I was hoping to get a good teacher, and I got an amazing one. She has proven and provided us with top class training, knowledge and a very well planned course. There wasn’t a moment where the lesson felt boring. I loved the unique learning experience and would totally recommend to people I know.

The content was very good, although perhaps better as a 1.5 day course rather than 2 full days. The recorded version will be really helpful for future!
