What are recent students saying about ATI courses and our instructors?
Satellite Communications Design & Engineering
“Bob has a wealth of knowledge and certainly knows the material.” “He was very knowledgeable on the subject, and I appreciated how up-to-date all of the content appeared.”
Systems Engineering Fundamentals
” The instructor is very experienced and shared many practical examples to help us understand the content.”
Radar Systems Fundamentals
“For a fundamentals course, this was quite more advanced than I was expecting. While I may not ever get to apply a good amount of the equations for my work, I still came away with an understanding of what they mean.” Radar Systems Fundamentals
“Fantastic overview of high-level radar concepts. Being someone that’s easily intimidated by all the math in radar textbooks, I appreciated the straight-forward explanation of basic concepts tied to accompanying equations I also appreciate the inclusion of MATLAB scripts with the course material and stepping through them real time”
Technical Presentation Skills for STEM Professionals
“Kept the class engaged and made the material relatable with the questions and examples he gave.”
