Joel DiCicco is fantastic. Best AMA instructor and class I've experienced. His ability to relate complex information to easily comprehendible models is fantastic!
The instructor was great. I believe it was a lot of material for a short time course. Maybe the course could have a more specific and more hands on practice. Thanks
