It was an excellent live online training session. The Trainer ‘Munawar Ahmed Shaikh’ is an interactive person, and he has lots of industrial experience. He used to explain the project reference that he did on the industry that helped to understand the different CISSP domains.The training session was through GoToMeeting, and it interrupted the session. The trainer spent time troubleshooting the GoToMeeting, and why the drawing board was not displayed on the screen, voice breaks during the sessions. Sprintzeal should change GoToMeeting for better live online training sessions. I highly recommend ‘Munawar Ahmed Shaikh’ for CISSP training.

PMP Boot camp by Syed M. Quadri on 21-25 Oct 2019. Excellent class. Mr. Quadri presented sound information and gave logic advice that was helpful to tie the information together for memory. Great point on the ITTO's that I and O are nouns and TT's are verbs or actions

Clear and informative course to prepare for the PMP exam. The content was laid out well, and you could tell the instructor, Biswa, had plenty of experience teaching the course. The additional material provided was also very helpful.

Transitioning Officer in pursuit of PMP and MBA

Tim was beyond amazing. Not only did he know his craft, but he was also able to explain it to a level someone with the lowest level of knowledge could understand, without insulting the intelligence. I came in with barely any formal knowledge of the PM world and ended leaving with way more competency. Tim mixed personal experience and PMI terms/processes/knowledge areas to increase my understanding (it worked). Loved this class, loved the teacher. I will definitely recommend this class and more specifically, the teacher to other coworkers, friends and family. Thank you!

It was an excellent Bootcamp that provided a solid foundation/framework for PMP. I was hesitant to take a virtual course, but the limited size of the class and the excellent instruction made me a believer in virtual classes.

Dani is a very knowledgeable project manager, with real-life experiences and stories. He was able to take the slides provided by Sprintzeal and know if they were from PMBOK 5 or PMBOK 6, what was enhanced, what was deleted, and apply an example that made sense to the topic. Dani's biggest challenge was the GoToMeeting process and landing back on the slide deck after providing additional information to teach a particular point. It is challenging to teach people on different coasts, but he was able to and respect the time difference.
Review of Sprintzeal: Alex reached out to me and walked me through the entire registration process, answering all of my questions and there were many. I was supposed to have a live class, but because I ended up being the only person that did not cancel they transferred me into an on-line class and have offered an additional class to make up for that. I received my PMBOX 6 book ahead of class and found everything very straight forward. I hope that the three mock tests and assistance in completing my application are as clear and efficient as the rest of this has been.
I have 4 stars for the slide reading and technical challenges to date.
Thank you - Christi

The instructor is experienced, this is obvious. To help drive home the point in instructing, they should use personal experience more often. Less reading of the data on the slides. The class was helpful.

Dana is an excellent instructor. He had a lot of test taking and industry experience. I noticed that the power point and test material references the 5th edition. For example, the reference to Quality Audit which is in the 6th Edition called Quality Assurance. Dana was able to point these out and reduce confusion.

Jason and Shane were phenomenal. I scheduled the bootcamp and went through the training. I had a hiccup during the training and was unable to complete a portion. Jason made all of the resources available to me and accommodated me in moving forward. Jason from Sprintzeal was helpful from the start and through the finish of the process. Thank you all so much! You are all that you advertise and so much more. 100% great training and service!
