Great Experience

March 17, 2023

The course was easy to get through. presentations in each section were clear easy to follow and take notes. Very easy to re – watch sections if you needed to. Had one glitch where a lesson did not load but was contacted immediately to inform me the system had gone down for a few minutes. i was able to pick up right where I left off with out missing a beat. Great experience.
