Even though it took a bit long to complete this network course, it was every insightful and as I've managed to get a little bit of knowledge about network and network security.

I had to do this while sick and injured...BRUTAL. But this course WILL teach you the working skills of it. Just make sure to know how to set up your computer when you go to work and you're good.

The material is very good. I would only say that there feels like a giant gap between the quizzes vs the portfolio activities. The difference in difficulty level is palpable. The quizzes are easier to manage probably because I receive adequate exposure to the information before the quiz. The portfolio activities seem to be the opposite, where you are essentially trying to put something together that you don't have much familiarity with and you really only see what you were supposed to do or could have done after observing the exemplar. The guiding/ quiz portfolio questions/examples are helpful and the idea that our work may look different to the exemplar is understandable, but it does produce a question of, "Will the employer appreciate my portfolio, or is the exemplar better?"
