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

I was recently offered an opportunity to take my training through another company, but I politely declined. I only attend Lion Technology workshops.

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.

The course is well thought out and organized in a way that leads to a clearer understanding of the total training.

Lion's information is very thorough and accurate. Presenter was very good.
