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

I really enjoy your workshops. Thank you for such a great program and all the help Lion has provided me over the years!

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.

Best course instructor I've ever had. Funny, relatable, engaging; made it interesting and challenged us as the professionals we are.

Amanda Schwartz

Course instructor was better prepared and presented better than other trainers. Course manual and references were easier to use as well.

I tried other environmental training providers, but they were all sub-standard compared to Lion. I will not stray from Lion again!

Sara Sills

Environmental Specialist

Given the choice, I would do all coursework this way. In-person courses go very fast without the opportunity to pause or repeat anything.

Ellen Pelton

Chemical Laboratory Manager

Having the tutorial buttons for additional information was extremely beneficial.

You blew the doors off the competition!

Lion was very responsive to my initial questions and the website was user friendly.
