Carmen did a fantastic job instructing our Class. From providing in depth analysis on course material to drawing from outside sources and personal experiences to fully flesh out the subject matter she placed a high level of importance on our understanding. Hoping all her hard work pays off on our success on the exam. I would unconditionally recommend her as an instructor and project manager!

Jason and Shane were phenomenal. I scheduled the bootcamp and went through the training. I had a hiccup during the training and was unable to complete a portion. Jason made all of the resources available to me and accommodated me in moving forward. Jason from SprintZeal was helpful from the start and through the finish of the process. Thank you all so much! You are all that you advertise and so much more. 100% great training and service! Trust Mamma Reviews

The training was good. It would be great with some case studies on important concepts. The practical examples of concepts would be better rather than just the concept definitions. Thanks, Akhil for providing me with the training.

Tarun was honestly the best trainer/coach that I've had in 20 years in the IT profession. He covered the EA/TOGAF material and had real life examples to make everything completely understandable. He listened to my professional concerns and questions and offered advice/suggestions from his years of experience. He genuinely cared about my understanding and was truly a mentor in so many areas related to EA and beyond enterprise architecture. His willingness to share his experiences and his passion to help others grow was very evident and so appreciated. Thank you so very much for the awesome week!
