Meet the Experts
With over 80 combined years of experience in their fields, our instructor advisory board puts their real-world experience to the task when they work with learners of all levels. They make the material approachable during each class session, but they also act as our technical knowledge base when we create course content and other documentation. In addition to this panel, quite a few of our other technical instructors assist in course content creation and review. In short, we bring in the technical experts who are the best fit for each course to ensure that our training courses are accurate, accessible, and relevant to those who take the courses.
