I felt that the course and all facilitators and staff were phenomenal at not only covering the content but bringing it to life and knowing not only my organization but all of the others in the room as well. The training and content were timely and relevant to our organization. Additionally, the safety equation is a great framework for implementing safety systems into every aspect of our organization. Thanks to all for a great experience!
