Mr. Biswa has been a very thorough instructor providing a very comprehensive training on Program Management. It has been a pleasure learning from him and look forward to taking more courses under Sprintzeal for related topics on Program Management. I will take what I have learned from him and Sprintzeal to my workplace and maybe apply some of the lessons in the area of Procurement Management. I feel also that I am maybe 60% percent ready to take the exam but will be close to 100% by the time I read more course materials and study for it. Thank you for the learning experience and look forward to learning some more.

The CISSP training went well. We were able to joint the sessions on time. Trainer (Munaavar) is interactive person, so he gave examples to explain each and every concept. The training was on schedule related to the topics within CISSP. I liked the way he started the training by giving time to talk about the participants background. Totally, the training went well. I would rate with 4 stars.

Indeed, A Great Learning Experience !!! I am very thankful for choosing Sprintzeal as my training medium for PMP. All the team members from Sprintzeal spent a whole lot of time with me right from the start of my application until my application was accepted by PMI. I am personally thankful to David Johnson and Alex Wood for all their assistance along the way. The training part from Sprintzeal has the class of its own. It has been such a good learning experience. I am jazzed to admit that Tammy (the instructor) made the entire journey of understanding PMP terminology and concepts a great experience. She is crystal clear about all of the mathematical concepts associated with PMP. This is really helpful in understanding the project management concepts She got the whole training properly structured and easy to follow Sprintzeal course material to meet the course learning objectives. She got right to the point and helped me understand all the important bits in a timely manner.. Tammy is very patient to answer our question and covered all materials within 4 days. Moreover, she shares her past real PM experience with us and make this class more "practical" and assist us to combine work experience with theory. I learned a great deal of knowledge as well as exam-passing-tips in this intensive/productive class. With Sprintzeal came Tammy, both of them are awesome. Thank you both.
