I have personally taken 6 check-it labs, twice each during the two times I
attended the NMC-2 class. I have also attended their NMC-1 course as well. I
cant say enough about this course, the instructors and the check-it labs
themselves. I honestly would recommend the check-it's to anyone without
hesitation. I would also recommend the courses as well. Check out their
webpage and see what they have to offer, they are all professionals and will
help you learn the material, as well as get a number.
