The order of the hands-on training needs rearrangement. The lab order should be from easiest to the most complicated. Our training order is (by Lab #): 1-3-2-4, but in my opinion, a better order is: 1-3-4-2. Lab #2 includes setting up the hardware pin which, understandably, should be placed correctly in 2nd. But the code needed to work on it is the longest, so it might be better to split it into a more simple I/O with hardware assignment as #2. (Posted on 6/4/2021)1. Do you find the course meet your expectation? 2. Do you find the trainer knowledgeable in this subject? 3. How do you find the training environment
