“Instructors were very knowledgeable. They were able to transmit the info to us in a very real and interesting way. They never discussed or wasted time on areas that did not pertain to us. They asked for feedback as we progressed on how and what would be helpful.”
-Sam Moses, Jr., Balfour Beatty U.S.

“With over ten years in renewables, I can say this was the best instruction by any company. They made sure that you were aware of how to use the equipment. That you would be able to use it if and when the time comes. Not just going through the motions and handing out a certificate. The classroom instruction was taught very well, and easy to follow and understand. Then we were trained using real world scenarios.”
– David Webb, Nordex

“Our instructor was extremely knowledgeable and provided a high level expertise to our training environment. He was able to instill confidence in our rescue ability through well delivered demonstrations and fully involved hands on training. His professionalism and manner created an environment that was both engaging and fun. We will certainly have him back to do more courses in the future. Thank you!”
-Tyler Hough, Dick Anderson Construction
