Very witty instructor, made the long times sitting bearable. One of the few training courses I can say I actually enjoyed.

These are the best classes I attend each year. I always take something away and implement improvements at my sites.

Kim Racine

I used the IT support number available and my issue was resolved within a few minutes. I don't see anything that could have made it better.

Danny Province

Having the tutorial buttons for additional information was extremely beneficial.

Sharon Ziemek

The instructor did an excellent job presenting a very dry subject; keeping everyone interested and making it enjoyable.

Marc Bugg

Excellent job. Made what is very dry material interesting. Thoroughly explained all topics in easy-to-understand terms.

David Hertvik

Very well structured, comprehensive, and comparable to live training seminars I've participated in previously. I will recommend the online course to other colleagues with training requirement needs.

Neil Luciano

EHS Manager
