Quality Content for Busy Professionals

Honestly, for a person with a full-time job and busy schedule, the course work was the right length and amount. Comprehensive enough to learn the content and meet the course objectives but not so long as to be difficult to manage with work and schedule. And the content was chunked out in digestible bits with the knowledge checks at the right point to confirm the learnings.
