Customer Comment:

I want to thank you for the excellent work you have recently done for the Regional Training Center. You have brought creativity, skill, and solid information to each of your presentations.

I was particularly impressed with the evaluations from the workshop you did for our Master Instructor Development Program. Participants are law enforcement instructors who are in a year long advanced program and are a "tough" audience. You won them over completely with your professionalism, competence, and sense of humor. All the participants commented on the value of your workshop to their growth as instructors.

Thanks again for your efforts - we look forward to working with you on other projects in the coming years.

Sincerely,
Michele Thompson
Training Director
