We did learn a lot of calculating the technical parts gathering the correct gear and how to properly read the tags on the gear.

(I liked…) Instructor Input - Anytime one (can) get experience from - it is a gain.

Entergy Kirk H.

The instructor helped understand the math.

Atkinson Construction E. J.

It was appreciative that time was taken to answer questions. All questions were
answered with knowledge and skill. Reference material was well used to reinforce the "why" of what an overhead crane operator is responsible for.

(What I liked most about the seminar was...) We stay(ed) on topic.
