I think LION does an excellent job of any training they do. Materials provided are very useful to my day-to-day work activities.

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

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