Testimonials

I recently attended the AWS Security Training with edForce and had a great first-hand experience. The trainer Anurag, and facilitator Ashutosh, both delivered the content effectively, ensuring that I thoroughly understood the concepts. The training tools and materials were comprehensive and effective in helping me grasp the content. I am looking forward to attending additional trainings with edForce to continue improving my professional knowledge.

I have attended a session regarding Docker and Kubernetes with edForce. It was a very good experience. In a short duration of session, instructor explained almost every detail about the topics to at least start with that tech stack. I am looking forward for more session with edForce in future.
