PKI Training Student Testimonials

    CISSP, Software Diligence Services, and chief technical officer, PacStar

     

    “It’s a real treat and privilege to attend, I’m learning a ton, and it’s directly related to the work I do.  The labs so far have been amazing. You are a master presenter, and an obvious master of the subject matter, which also makes it enjoyable.”

  • Paul Dale
    Professional Services Consultant, TITUS

     

    “Mark’s PKI courses on MSFT ADCS are by far and away the very, very best on the market! I’ve never met anybody who knows more than he does around the technology, and I simply cannot recommend him highly enough!”

  • William H. Knight
    Sr. Systems Administrator, Deloitte

     

    “The class was excellent. The content was useful, detailed and as advanced as I was hoping it’d be. The hands-on labs were very well thought out, easy to understand and effectively linked the course content and lecture to actual implementation.”

  • Lourdes Herling
    Cyber Security Analyst, Nebraska Public Power District

     

    “The class definitely exceeded my expectations. My PKI knowledge has grown substantially. I plan on applying several of the concepts to our internal PKI. I will be recommending your courses to anyone who needs to increase their PKI knowledge.”

  • Matt Walker
    IT Manager, Stronghold Ltd.

     

    “My PKI re-deployment definitely wouldn’t have been successful without the knowledge and tools I gained this week. Your class should definitely be required for anyone attempting ADCS.”
