Evaluation Comments

The instructor's "knowledge of the laws and applications, as well as the approach to initiating thought and consideration to the applications, were extremely useful and effective."
"The instructor did an excellent job with both the material presentation and handling questions/comments that were a bit tough at times."
"Very well organized coverage of regs and applications. Very informative."
"I have only been working for four weeks so useful training for me. Glad that most of the regulations are part of the handouts."
