The way the program is set up you are able to work at your own pace – so no matter what time frame you are looking at you are able to accomplish the goals you have set forth!

Absolutely loved that they gave short quizzes after the sessions – which helped me to know areas I needed to spend more time studying before moving on.

The video should have more context as narrative speaks so it is easier to follow because some people are more of a visual leaner.

August 10, 2022

I think questions should be straight forward using common sense. No need to words it to sound confusing. When you are on the job, you have to use your basic common sense to make quick decision to make your best judgement to prevent bad things from happening,
