Lion was very extensive. There was a lot of things that were covered that were actually pertaining to what I do and work with. Great Job. I will be coming back in three years!

Lion is my preferred trainer for hazmat and DOT.

The exercises in the DOT hazardous materials management course are especially helpful in evaluating your understanding of course information.

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!
