ACI Learning Reviews

Mac users could not participate in any of the labs. Students have not money in order to buy windows computers. For the price if computers were issued it would have been better. The class ended at 11pm. IF you work a regular 9 to 5 and have to drive an hour from work to home you literally have no study time.This should be a month course with HANDS ONso students can actually learn the objectives. You listen to lectures for 2 weeks and hope and pray to God you maintained enough information to even pass the 25 question assessment at the end. I have known people in the IT world who could not pass the certification on the first try and we are expected to do it after 2 weeks. Counselors should be assigned to each student to call them after a week of completion to check on the student and see if they need assistance.

Lot's of topics grouped into one class session made it difficult to keep up. With not having the time needed to study as I am employed full time, made it difficult to retain a big amount of the lessons.

the course did not achieve its stated objective due to not being able to understand the information due to massive information to learn in too short of time and to understand the objectives is unrealistic. The Professor Messor videos are for advanced people wanting a refresh a novice coming in to view his videos are twiddling their thumbs looking around everywhere else but the videos. The information not only in the videos also in class goes over the heads of many due to the inexperience and the level of information being provided. NOT GOOD!

I like the fact that we have up to a year to go back and look over material and retake the class.

Although there is so much more to learn before we launch in to a full-blown audit of this area, I like the smaller trainings because it requires the instructors to get to the point and stay on topic. It also allows you to invest a little time in an area before you decide if this is an area you want/need to invest more time in to conduct a thorough audit.

I think this course would benefit from more examples of audit tests and/or evidence for each section, to bring home the concepts and theories being discussed. I also would have really enjoyed more interactive discussions, perhaps the use of breakout rooms so the students could do a case study or come up with some test designs on our own, which the instructor could then evaluate and explain his reasoning.

to much study materials over 1000 questions still a low understanding

This was the first class in the CUSS program that did not have labs in Test-Out. We had to use other resources to do labs and it was difficult to have to switch the norm and adjust to the "new way" in such a short period of time.

Needed more time to really understand material

should be better
