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!
