      "Short courses is great. Quick, easy, legit (which can be hard to find) and the RSA trainer Lindy was great fun. To the point and finished early but still had a giggle along the way. Would recommend. Thanks!"

      "Efficient, professional and painless. Good location. Trainer for the Food Handler Safety course (Dean) was very knowledgeable, engaging and made the session fun. Highly recommend. Only criticism is the session I attended was on a Saturday and it was quite warm in the classroom. Evidently the air conditioning is not activated on week-ends."
