Tilden Mine Jim M.(What I liked most about the seminar was…..) references.
Conoco PhillipsVenco Richard G.From a personal standpoint, I was impressed with the repore the instructor had
with our class. He was extremely patient and enthusiastic about what he was trying to get across to us about operating and maintaining our crane. I was also very impressed with his knowledge of the electrical & mechanical workings of so many different types of cranes. He is truly a valuable resource to your company and to those he teaches.
O'Neal Steel Joanne M.Although the material in the course was technical, it was presented so that it was not difficult to understand.
Exxon Mobil Jeremy G.Very informative.
