Lion's training was by far the best online RCRA training I've ever taken. It was challenging and the layout was great!

I have been to other training companies, but Lion’s material is much better and easier to understand.
Mark Abell

Lion is at the top of the industry in compliance training. Course content and structure are updated frequently to make annual re-training enjoyable. I like that Lion has experts that I can contact for 1 year after the training.

Lion courses always set the bar for content, reference, and practical application. Membership and access to the experts is an added bonus.

I was able to present my scenario to the instructor and worked thru the regulations together. In the past, I attended another training firm's classes. Now, I have no intention of leaving Lion!
