Lion's course was superior to others I have taken in the past. Very clear in the presentation and the examples helped to explain the content presented.

George Bersik

Hazardous Waste Professional

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!

Diana Joyner

Senior Environmental Engineer

Lion's online training is more comprehensive, has better slides, and is a superior training experience than what I would get from other trainers.

Robert Brenner

District Environmental Manager

I really enjoyed this training. Even after years on both sides of the comprehension coin, I find myself still learning! The quality of the delivery exceeded much of the training I have received in the past.

Neil Ozonur

Safety Officer

The instructor took a rather drab set of topics and brought them to life with realistic real-life examples.

Tom Berndt

Excellent class, super instructor, very easy to follow. No rushing through material. Would like to take his class again.

Lion courses are the standard to which all other workshops should strive for!

The instructor was very engaging and helped less experienced people understand the concepts.

This course went above my expectations from the moment I walked in the door. The instructor led us through two days packed with useful compliance information.
