 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently completed the MySQL training at Global Quest Technologies under the guidance of Raghu Sir, and it was an excellent learning experience. The course was very well-structured, starting from fundamentals and gradually moving into advanced topics.He explained every concept with great clarity and real-time examples, which made it easy to understand even the complex parts of SQL. I am very thankful to Raghu Sir and Global Quest Technologies for their excellent training and support. I would definitely recommend this institute to anyone who wants to build strong MySQL skills. And also I have currently completed core java from global quest technologies as java full stack intern under the mentoring of Raghu sir.The classes are absolutely worth and he has coverd all the important core concepts in java.I would recommend the classes to all.Such a good class.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Raghu Sir’s SQL sessions were not just about queries and commands, but about truly understanding how databases think. His way of connecting real-life scenarios with SQL concepts made the subject come alive. What I liked most was his patience in clearing doubts and the way he built confidence in approaching complex problems step by step. It was more than a class – it was an experience that strengthened my foundation in SQL. Honestly i liked it. Thank You sir [Indra]

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It was an good experience being in this soft skill class where i can learn more things like how to communicate, manage the things . Where i learned how to perform in group discussion, interview and built my confident. It was an amazing class and i am very glad and thankful for being in sir class. The MYSQL class which gives a  good experience on how to solve queries and learn  from it , the topic which was covered like ddl , dml , dql,  clause, function, transaction, er diagarm ,view ,stored procedure, triggers , variables .
