    Course "Automation Tester in Python"

    This is my first time at an online school so to speak. My impressions so far are only positive (I haven’t finished the course yet). What I like most of all is that the feedback is quite fast, there is always someone to help when my brain is about to explode. The educational platform itself is quite user-friendly… Read more

    • A convenient platform for studying, good mentors who are ready to help and are well versed in all this themselves.

    • It won’t be easy for someone who changes their profession radically (who has never worked with it). But we can overcome it.

    Ethical hacker

    I’m studying ethical hacking. The main thing is discipline and desire to learn. There is a lot of information and topics. For a good understanding you need basic concepts in IT and work experience to be able to apply your knowledge immediately.

    Good afternoon everyone!
    Let me say right off the bat that trainees are encouraged to leave a review and get plushies for it. Is it any wonder that so many positive feedback?

    Multi-move from Skillfactory. Aggressive marketing!!!

    Everything is built on promises and promises are made. It takes a lot of time to solve the issue, and a lot of questions arise!!!

      Hello. Thank you for sharing your experience. We are sorry to hear that you had a negative learning experience, but we would like to point out a few important objective points that you can take into account before you start training, so that you won’t be disappointed later:
      1. You should carefully study the card schools and an overview of the company on our website. This way you can understand whether you can study at the school at your own speed or not.
      2. You need to be prepared for that somewhere the learning will be difficult, somewhere it will be very easy. What seems primitive to you may seem super-complicated to others. Like As a rule, homework assignments are created in such a way that every student can solve them.

      Specified in the contract is null and void, and specified in the contract of offer skilfektori – illegal. All money for training is returned through the court, although it is long, but still, and you can return not only paid for training, but also the cost of a lawyer, interest on the loan (if the study on credit) as well as a fine of 50% of the total amount of the collection.
