A- The start times will be communicated in your enrolment confirmation notification for scheduled classes.

A- The details are as follows- 

For any virtual instructor-led course, you may download your course training guide PDFs (“eBooks”) and keep them for reference after class completion. Distribution of course training guide PDFs to individuals who did not attend the class is strictly prohibited.

Virtual instructor-led classes are NOT recorded, so you will not have access to these training sessions after the course ends.

Lab environments are accessible for six months following a scheduled class. We monitor the usage of our labs and remind you that lab access is strictly limited to the student who attended the course.

A- We would always recommend you attend the live session to practice & clarify the doubts instantly and get more value from your investment. However, if, due to some contingency, you have to skip the class, Radiant Techlearning will help you with the recorded session of that particular day. However, those recorded sessions are not meant only for personal consumption and NOT for distribution or any commercial use.

A- The learners will be enthralled as we engage them the real-world and industry Oriented projects during the training program. These projects will improve your skills and knowledge and give you a better experience. These real-time projects will help you greatly in future tasks and assignments.

A- You can request a return if you do not desire to enroll in the course.

A- Yes you can.

A- We use the ideal standards in Internet security. Any data retained is not communicated with third parties.

A- It is recommended but not mandatory. Being acquainted with the primary course material will enable students and the trainer to move at the desired pace during classes. You can access courseware for most vendors.

A- The course completion certification will be awarded to all the professionals who have completed the training program & the project assignment given by your instructor. Using the certificate in your future job interviews will surely help you to achieve your dream job.

A- Radiant believes in a practical and creative approach to training & development, which distinguishes it from other training and developmental platforms. Moreover, training courses are undertaken by some experts with a range of experience in their domain.
