The instructors were all helpful. Each of them in their own way and certain students seemed to gravitate towards one type of instruction over another, but everyone was motivated to help me learn and get what I wanted from the program.

As far as job support I don't have much to compare it against, but I've been happy so far.

"Good refresher program"
This program is definitely not for novices. It moves VERY fast and will definitely take additional hours of review. It did not prepare me for a career transition. It should be more like 6 months for students to really be comfortable with the material
