It would have been a better experience to have terminals on the desk that could be used to access some to the things required to perform the required tasks. A lot of us were using county issued computers or phones and were limited as to what we could access. Some of the things required the student to have "Administrator Access" and none of us do.

While the class did not provided an in-depth training into the Dark Web, it did give a better understanding of it and a basis for beginning investigations involving the Dark Web.

The class was helpful and VERY interesting. There were so many new items covered I get back to investigations and get lost on IP address issues. I think in the end the pace of the class was too quick for me. It seems like maybe too much content was put into the class I will be able to use it but feel too much was covered that I still feel a bit lost in the sauce. I will not recommend the course as the information presented is not they type of things I use day to day but on cases a few times a year possibly. I would recommend the instructor.

I enjoyed the class, but felt the instructor was limited in his ability to provide in-depth instruction due to the mixture of students with limited computer skills.

David was well prepared and qualified to instruct this subject matter. His experience and knowledge was evident at the genesis of the course. I would (and have) recommend this course for anyone that is interested in cyber crimes and dark web investigations.
Overall, excellent job!
