When I talked to the guys they all had nothing but good things to say about the trainers
and course. It looks like this is what we wanted and needed. Thanks!

(What I liked most about the seminar was…) The proximity of the shop-we just
walked out to look at things that were otherwise difficult to explain. The hands on. Also the tours on Thursday were fantastic. Particularly the guys who toured us through the Winsor and Watertown facilities were extremely knowledgeable and
took their time.
