Scenarios and story, interactive questions, structure and pace, using SkySpark / Axon

A brilliant course for learning the ins and outs of Axon. There definitely is a steep learning curve compared to the other course but with time and practise and answering the practise questions, it does help a whole lot to remember.

Thank you Jhan! Yes this course definitely requires dedicated time and concentration to gain the most benefit - as you found. :)

Scenarios and story, using SkySpark / Axon

I can recommend this course to anyone getting into Axon. I have already taken Skyfoundry's Skyspark Essentials myself, but still felt very unsure due to the language barrier and the speed of the course.

With this course I feel more confident and have a better understanding of Axon. Also because I was able to complete it at my own pace.

The information and exercises are well structured and build on each other. The whole thing is well linked with the story mode, which sometimes makes you smile and gives the exercises a "sense".

Overall, a very motivating course where you can learn a lot.

Manuel Schaub (Leicom ITEC AG)

Thank you for the detailed feedback Manuel, it is great to hear you had so much benefit from this course. We absolutely believe in "applied learning" - with a little humour along the way too of course!
