    Instructor comments: Instructor was very knowledgeable on all the course content. There were some instances when I felt he streamlined through some of the material too quickly, such as going over how to identify types of attacks.

    Instructor comments: The instructor was very well versed on the topic and knew how to apply it to real-life examples. He led the labs and was very excited about the topic which kept the interest of myself and other class members. Sometimes his volume level was a little high- however the room the class was in was very small. Too small for a big personality!

    Facilities comments: I was unaware of the facility changes, but that was at no fault of anyone since I was a drop-in for the course. They were very helpful and quick to mediate the issue.
