I have had two classes from GK - Network Security and ICRC. The ICRC
class was held in a regular GK training center (Baltimore, MD) and the
instructor was phenomenal. He knew what he was talking about, had the
equipment set up for labs, and was genuinely interested in teaching. The Network
Security class was a waste of my time. That was held on the road in
Washington, DC and the instructor had quite a bit of problems just getting
a network set up. He had obviously taught the class many times before
but I wasn't too impressed with his depth of knowledge.
