"Jsem všeobecně spokojeny a jsem rad že náš zaměstnavatel u vás stále kurzy objednává. Konkrétně TERPAK kurz byl pro mě dostatečně hodnotný jako seznámení s technologii, o které jsem vůbec nic nevěděl. Dekuji"

"Bohatě zpracovaný kurz z hlediska předaných informací. Díky menšímu počtu účastníků byl větší prostor pro řešení individuálních problémů, témat nebo otázek, o což se i lektor aktivně snažil. Jako základní kámen pro další práci a rozvoj s Terraformem a Packerem kurz naprosto splní účel."
