I took the 3 days live online SAFe for Architects with Advised Skills. I hesitated for quite awhile to attend an online course, but I was impressed with the superior organization of those virtual sessions. I received all the information, exercises and tools which helped with the exam later on. They have an exceptional customer service team which are always in touch with you at all stages of the training.
User

Stefan George

Attending SAFe for Architects with Advised Skills was a really good choice. Since they provide their training courses at a competitive price. Nonetheless, the delivery of the training course with professional trainers like Czarnecki helped us all to understand the methodology and pass the certification exam smoothly.
