I like Lion's workshops the best because they really dig into the information you need to have when you leave the workshop.

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.

The instructor does a great job at presenting material in an approachable way. I have been able to save my company about $30,000 in the last year with what I have learned from Lion!

Best instructor ever! I was going to take my DOT training w/a different provider, but based on this presentation, I will also be doing my DOT training w/Lion!
