The Adaptive US team is very helpful and customer oriented. I aimed for the AAC certification, the trainer offered very helpful insights and was very collaborative. I found Flashcards very useful, they helped me remember the terms and the appropriate explanation. Tutorial sessions are extremely helpful, to clarify questions and doubts live with the tutor.
