I give 3grow a solid 5/7, would recommend!
I've tried 3 of the popular google results for Microsoft Training courses. All of these felt like a very rote course. so much so that the instructors couldn't answer questions outside of the scripted exercises.
Attending 3Grow was the diamond in the rough for this market. Russ had the most knowledge and human-interface of M365, particularly sharepoint.
3Grow is the only M365 training provider in will recommend.
I will definitely be attending more training and have recommend other from the company to attend relevant training sessions.
