I have attended other training providers, but Lion is best. Lion is king of the hazmat jungle!!!

John Nekoloff

More thorough than a class I attended last year through another company.

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

Tom Berndt

These are the best commercial course references I have seen (10+ years). Great job!

The instructor had knowledge of regulations and understanding of real-world situations. The presentation style was engaging and fostered a positive atmosphere for information sharing.

Lion courses always set the bar for content, reference, and practical application. Membership and access to the experts is an added bonus.

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!
