Pluralsight
This page acts as a statement of record for my Pluralsight Skill IQs and Certificate of Completions. I was given the opportunity to learn through Pluralsight, an enterprise training platform, through previous places of employ. As I have advanced in my career, I have found I prefer project-oriented learning styles, as opposed to the lecture style offered by Pluralsight. The profile for my user jrbeverly
is no longer accessible at app.pluralsight.com/profile/jrbeverly, as I no longer make use of the platform.
