My experience with Lion classes has always been good. Lion Technology always covers the EPA requirements I must follow.

Lion provided an excellent introduction to environmental regulations, making the transition to a new career as an EHS specialist less daunting of a task. Drinking from a fire hose when the flow of water is lessened, is much more enjoyable!
