The training was excellent, offering a lot of hands-on labs, though time was a bit tight—but that's expected in an expert-level course. The location was also fantastic, with a great environment, high-quality equipment, and friendly people.

The LAI crew is very helpful, and Peter is an excellent trainer.
Peter is enthusiastic about the topic, not only while teaching but also when he gets questions in labs. It's truly rare to see such a combination.
