Reviews

My outlook on training changed completely after attending SpringPeople BPC training. The content, the trainer and infrastructure at SpringPeople were top notch and perfectly in tune with the industry requirements. Regardless to say, training is now something that I look forward to to. Kudos to everyone at SpringPeople!

I attended the 3-day AngularJs training at SpringPeople. The trainer was an industry veteran with vast experience in the subject. Notably, the hands-on training, and the Q&A session stood out. Overall, I found SpringPeople a great place to learn with excellent facilities and great trainers. Would recommend SpringPeople to my colleagues and friends.

I attended the jQuery training batch, conducted by Mr. Vijay, an SME who did a thorough coverage of all the essentials. He took us through concepts such as jQuery animations, event handlers, plugins, and jQuery-UI by small programs, very easily. The sessions were useful and well structured. By the end of the training, I was well equipped to develop a SPA on Product Management System. Overall, the learning experience at SpringPeople was great!
