L3 Comm Heather G.The instructor did a great job of allowing group discussion, but kept it on topic
and relevant. He also had a great real world experience to add to discussions and presentations.
Gerdau Ameristeel Wayne J.(What I liked about the seminar was….) How much knowledge that instructor
shared. Instructor did a great job. He has a great deal of knowledge about cranes and the components. He (did) good on his presentations and should be recommended. This was one of the better class that I've taken with a good instructor.
