Reviews for this Online Course
- Great course Posted by Nancy on 14th May 2014
I love your trainings. They are very convenient and it is easy to put together a package to satisfy the number of STARS credits I need each year. It is great that you are adding more and more options. - Love all the options for classes! Posted by Shellie on 14th Apr 2014
Online and able to do it at home when I had time. I didn't have to go anywhere or do it on someone else's schedule! Wish it had an option to PAUSE during the audio part instead of having to replay the whole page. Maybe its my home computer but I couldn't do that! Frustrating when children come in to talk to me and I have to start over.
