I was able to learn tbe basics of C programming and have something to build upon.
Patrick Hensley - Roush Industries
Course - Programming in C
Hands-on! This allowed us to test the knowledge provided by the instructor and helped myself take notes on specific functions / that I found more difficult.
Lloyd Lancour - Roush Industries
Course - Programming in C
The knowledge of the instructor in C programming, and the way he showed us how to fix everyone’s problems helped the most when diagnosing coding issues and using the STM32CubeIDE on my own. The many times the instructor broke from the coarse and explained use cases that are more applicable to our workload definitely made this class worth it!
David Sanders - Roush Industries
Course - Programming in C
Cameron would assign tasks and make sure everyone's board was operational. If there was confusion or an error about anything, the entire group was able to go back and look where mistakes were at. Very professional.
