"Very well organized, thorough, appropriate amount of individual work, group work, and lecturing. I appreciated the extra time given to allow diagrams to sink in."
"Great online course that covered all the essential data patterns. The instructor was excellent...very polished, knowledgeable and thorough. The examples he used and the time he gave us to relate it to our industries was invaluable."
"The instructor interaction with the group was invaluable - to consistently ask for our day to day business examples to help relate the concepts from the course. Also found the custom or proprietary data modeling patterns helpful. Very insightful way to take a different approach to the 'by the book' criteria."
