All I can say is that the instructors are some of the most patient people I've dealt with. I asked tons if questions, blew up their emails with even more and they answered everything with kindness and professionalism. I feel after completing the daily lessons and quizzes, I am prepared to go on with my career with confidence and an appreciation for OSHA standards and safety. I'm happy I was able to complete my OSHA with this team.
