The subject itself was really fascinating. Over these three days, I could truly feel Vincenzo’s passion for it. I decided to give it a try, and now I’m sure I want to keep going and continue learning on my own.
Marius Lungu - Siemens
Course - Introduction to Linux
The thing I liked the most was the fact that even though I thought that I had some experience with linux, there was some simple things that I didn’t know about. And also, I was used to google something when there was a problem, but Luke showed us how to find something without using internet connection.
