Lion's online training is more comprehensive, has better slides, and is a superior training experience than what I would get from other trainers.

The instructor was excellent. They knew all of the material without having to read from a notepad or computer.

Well designed and thorough program. Excellent summary of requirements with references. Inclusion of regulations in hard copy form, as well as full electronic with state pertinent regulations included is a great bonus!
