Aaron B. of Sierra Vista, AZ 10/01/10 Instructor was very knowledgeable of the software and also gave a lot of great work examples on how he used the technology to help him. Instructor would be a great mentor to have.
Patrick M. of Sierra Vista, AZ 10/01/10 James Corder (Jim) is an excellent..... "instructor-VMware professional." His experience "showed" or was demonstrated during the course. I was waiting for a "sharp shooter" to impress us all with or that "they" knew more then Jim but, that did not happen.... for Jim was able to explain the various environments that could affect VMware software. Jims troubleshooting of software (in-class) was exceptional.
Frank R. of Washington DC 10/22/10 I was very impressed with the teacher, James (Jim) D. Corder. Other instructors would do well to learn and copy his teaching methods, demeanor, etc.
Christina P. of Washington DC 10/22/10 Jim Corder is an awesome instructor. He is well versed in the product, energetic and draws from easy to understand and practical real world examples. Jim made the long hours for this class fun.
Jeff W. of Columbus Ohio 11/05/10 Our instructor is an asset to VMware. You guys should give him a raise. Thanks
Noe L. of Beverly Hills, MI 11/19/10 Great Instructor
Jim B. of Columbus Ohio 11/05/10 Jim was great. He has a great deal of knowledge about VMware and other IT topics related to the software that helps in understanding how environments are tied together. His presentation of material really helped me to understand advanced topics behind the deployment and operations of vSphere products.
Richard D. of Philadelphia, PA 12/03/10 Great course. Excellent instructor, very knowledgeable and great personality. Being a trainer myself for over 10 years, I do not give such praise of other trainers lightly. Jim was a great mentor through this course.
Clinton W. of Philadelphia, PA 12/03/10 James Corder: Jim was an excellent instructor. It was obvious from day 1 he knew his stuff! I really enjoyed the "hallway conversations" as well. Jim teaches through stories and previous experiences. This is how we did it at XYZ, thats valuable to me because sometimes the theory is great but not the best way to get something accomplished in real life. Overall I would definitely recommend the course to a co-worker and Jim as well. Thanks and be sure to tell Jim he did a great job!
William P. of Cincinnati, OH 12/10/10 The course would have gone smoother had the data centers VMware servers been more stable, but our trainer, Jim, was fantastic and got the issues resolved quickly.
Kevin T. of Cincinnati, OH 12/10/10 I can not say enough about the instructor. He is VERY knowledgeable about VMWARE and the IT industry in general. He also took the time to answer questions and made sure everyone was on the same page before moving on. He also stayed after class to help out as well. Again. He is the best instructor I have ever had in training. I would DEFINITELY take any other VMWARE course that he teaches!!
Brian A. of Columbus, OH 12/17/10 The instructor was great.
Ronald P. of Columbus, OH 12/17/10 Jim Corder is a very engaging instructor and is very knowledgable.
