[Testimonials from Past Participants]
Manager, Technology Department, A Major Bank: The remote format was very convenient. Not only was the training free, but cloud servers were also provided for practice. The best part was the meticulous explanation of key concepts in the videos. The instructor was also patient and prompt in answering questions in the group. We came with specific questions, making the learning targeted. For instance, the session on the client interface corrected some of our previously inaccurate usage.
Auditor, Bank of Jiangxi Headquarters: The training model was innovative, prioritizing the student experience. It differed from traditional one-way lectures by emphasizing interaction and communication. Course notes were also compiled and shared with students after the training. The post-session exercises and periodic tests played a critical role in reinforcing knowledge and validating the learning outcomes. The instructors' Q&A sessions and detailed explanations provided an excellent starting point for all students, regardless of their prior knowledge, to quickly grasp, deepen their understanding of, and get hands-on with the product for future use.
noH, Senior Programmer: The online training and exam approach saved commuting time. The course is beginner-friendly with a manageable learning load and a clearly structured syllabus. The periodic tests, where every question comes with a detailed breakdown, were very helpful for self-study. Regarding official support, I reached out to Teacher Shen and Teacher Hao with my questions and received effective and timely responses. Awesome, thank you!
Data Architect, Jiangsu Servyou: This training was organized as an online bootcamp, which was super convenient. Not only was it free, but a cloud environment was also provided for hands-on practice. The most impressive aspect was the instructors' incredibly detailed explanations—they truly went deep into the core of every topic. The instructors were also very patient and prompt in answering our questions in the group. A big thank you to the instructors and to all my peers for sharing their questions during the learning process.
Student, School of Computer Science, Tiangong University: I found the training effective. In the videos, the instructor demonstrates while explaining, which gives you a direct understanding of each command's function. Since I had prior experience with virtual machines, the hands-on labs were manageable. For every exercise, a document with commands and expected results is shared in the group, so you can cross-reference your own work. I think this basic tutorial is very suitable for students like us.
Big Data Project Manager, Hand Enterprise Solutions: The program spanned fifteen days, requiring just 1-2 hours daily. It comprehensively covered everything from GBase's history and features to deployment, general usage, and monitoring. You had to pass the unit quizzes to qualify for the final certification. Scoring high and actively participating also came with perks like waived exam and certificate fees. I must say, the arrangement was spot-on, perfectly balancing the carrot and the stick—haha. I love this model. It motivates everyone, encourages broad participation, and prevents the whole program from becoming a mere formality. I highly recommend newcomers join the next cohort.
