I really enjoyed the case studies in this course and the education on various frameworks felt like I could immediately use the material in real world scenarios. Highly recommended course materials.

I am really honored to review this course. The course and the Professor was really having a high practical approach. 4th Module was little bit confusion although it was a great time doing the course.

The course I found so far the worst from the GIES. I found it to be very boring in design. Especially what the guests tell was more like a show for themselves than the transfer of knowledge.
