“Our instructor was an exceptional presenter. He skillfully connected the course material to real-world situations, making it much easier for me to grasp than I ever expected. His practical experience and insightful stories were directly relevant to the role, offering valuable guidance on how to become the best leader possible,” said Justin Zalewski, Fortis Alberta.

“My instructor was very knowledgeable and informative; he covered the coursework but also applied real-world concepts that made the material more relatable. He also worked at the pace of the class which helped because most of the participants only had working knowledge of the practices not formal knowledge,” said Stacy Jackson, Main Line Health.

“My instructor was great. Very knowledgeable and kept the whole class engaged. The knowledge that was received from the training is very applicable to my work environment and it will help me master my craft. Thank you,” said Andres Zurita, SouthState Bank.

“Our instructor was extremely knowledgeable and helpful and passionate about the content of the course and the industry in general, which made it easier to learn as a student. I feel like I have been set up for success on my certification test,” said DaQuay Campbell, QCR Holdings.
