Excellent course, the trainer was great and made the experience fun and I found remembering the material much more manageable than self-study. Also, for each chapter, we would complete an online test, which helped cement the knowledge. I would defiantly use IT Governance again for my training.

An excellent bootcamp course led by a fantastic trainer, Michael Stout. Michael really knows his subject inside out and made the concepts simple to understand. I passed my CISSP at first attempt and in 100 questions; this course certainly helped me to achieve that. 5/5
