Reviews

The instructors delivery of the content was well articulated, well organized and outstanding. His knowledge of the material, both theoretically and practically, was most impressive. This was a game changer in my career and I couldn't have asked for a better course and instructor. I will recommend this course to my colleagues.

The instructor was very knowledgeable on the topics covered. In the 15 years I've attended training, this was the most practical and useful course ever. I would recommend HOTT to anyone in need of training. The instructor did an extraordinary job.

This has been my best technology-training course. The subject matter directly relates to what I'm doing at work. The fact that the instructor is so knowledgeable was refreshing. He took the time to answer questions and patiently explained also giving examples. I will be referring others to this class.
