SQL Level 1
This was a very well organized and appropriately paced class. The instructor encouraged questions and provided very detailed responses whenever possible. The greatest bonus about taking courses at The Career Center is that you can retake them at any time. Huge plus for technical skills that can easily be forgotten if not implemented right away. I am very satisfied and plan to sign up for more classes.

Guys, this class was great! I would recommend it to a friend. I especially liked the work book; it was so so helpful, I'm sure I will use it a couple times or even more. Lots of really good examples there. Lots of advice on how to deal with problems as a customer service representative. Also the teacher - Liz - is such a good person. She has a lot of experience and you can discuss all you need with her.

I really enjoyed the class yesterday and I thought that Jesper was such an amazing teacher. He really made the class and the other two women who were with me thought the same! He was so thorough in explaining EVERYTHING and gave each one of us lots of individual time to answer our questions. He made it fun and interesting as well. I learned so much and could not be more pleased!
