Testimonials

“The trainer was INCREDIBLE. He was extremely passionate, made sure to consistently ask if anybody needed help, logged on early to answer any questions, and was an overall great human being.”

★★★★★

- Salvatore, Hilton Grand Vacations

Thoroughly enjoyed the training. The trainer was fantastic! It is rare but always an awesome experience when a trainer is also an experienced practioner with a breadth of knowledge and hands on experience… even well beyond the subject matter at hand. I had the feeling that the trainer could have answered in detail any question we might have had related to not only BDM but Hadoop and other relevant big data topics as well. Time well spent and I hope to encounter Tomi again.
