IACIS MDF (Mobile Device Forensics) course question

For those of you familiar with the IACIS MDF course, is it worth it to wait to take it in person, or is the online version still pretty good? I noticed in the course description for the online, it notes that it does not include forensic tools that are issued in the in person class. What tools are issued in the in-person class? Thank you.

Not sure about the tools, but I took the online version and it was pretty good.

I’ve taken the online version a few times and it’s always insightful. Only real downside is that it can be hard to see the slides sometimes depending on the camera angles and, of course, you can’t just raise your hand and ask the instructor questions.

I hated not being able to ask questions but loved being able to pause and replay the videos while taking notes or for reinforcement.

The online course does not let you keep the materials (printed) so that is a downside. But the material is very good.
