STUDENT REVIEWS
“This is the 8th class I’ve taken with your organization and although Intro to Est and Bidding was helpful…this class should be first!! Great course really informative and enjoyed the self pace structure.”
“I think the course was structured very well for people who are working full time plus jobs. You were able to go at your own pace as long as the work was done by end of week. I really appreciated that because this time of year, work is somewhat overwhelming and not having homework assignments due everyday made it manageable. I really enjoyed this class and feel like I learned a lot of information that I wouldn’t have learned at work.”
“The course is perfect the way it is. The assignments are the greatest strength as they make the course practical with real field scenarios.”
