Excellent job. Made what is very dry material interesting. Thoroughly explained all topics in easy-to-understand terms.

We have a very busy work schedule and using Lion enables us to take the course at our own time. It makes it easy for me to schedule my employees' training.

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

The workshop covered a lot of information without being too overwhelming. Lion is much better, more comprehensive than other training providers.

I was able to present my scenario to the instructor and worked thru the regulations together. In the past, I attended another training firm's classes. Now, I have no intention of leaving Lion!

Diana Joyner

This was the 1st instructor that has made the topic actually enjoyable and easy to follow and understand. Far better than the "other" training providers our company has attended!

This course went above my expectations from the moment I walked in the door. The instructor led us through two days packed with useful compliance information.
