    Bih dithapohhnmien'. Dion ain teachyen deh claaath. Deh'nyoo'guy'hae' wuuun jahb tadoo whish'wah'toweedah' scrip' and hee faaaithd. Given how outstanding Dion's other lecture series have been (CASP+ and CySA+ series were wonderful) , this one is a huge turn off.

    The contents of the course are adequate but the slides shown are mostly useless. Lots of shutterstock pictures that don't help at all, other slides just show in text what the teacher is saying, and a lot of diagrams missing that could help to understand the lesson.

    Lots of material was repeated throughout the course, unnecessarily lengthening the course and in the process wasting student's time. Additionally, there were lots of video/audio problems in the course which showed poor production quality. Finally, I took the exam in "Exam Mode" at first it didn't show my answer responses at the end. I've taken a number of Dion courses, and reviewing all of my answers - to see what I got right, and what I need to improve on - was always one of the biggest benefits. Not having that feature is absolutely ridiculous and really destroys the overall value of the course.
