Easy enough to complete

Informative and helpful material. I learned a few things. Wish the voiceover was actually someone reading and not a computerized voice. Wish that the next section would have started automatically, but I’m sure the click-through is a requirement for ANSI certification so you can’t just leave the course running unattended. Loved finding out that this company is woman- and minority-owned. You should advertise that upfront! Thanks.
