Testimonials

"Informative workshop! It has substantially enriched my knowledge and added value to my Career Profile. I really appreciate the way Sami go out of the way to help us understand the topics.

I come from a non-programming background yet, the topics were taught in the most laymen language making it a child’s play. I feel so happy to write the coding all by self and automating my various day-to-day tasks.

The program was the right balance of relevant theoretical inputs and hands-on practical exercises. Well structured! My special thanks to Sami."
