“The skill and enthusiasm the staff had truly made this experience unforgettable. They were very knowledgeable and helpful. The extra time and dedication they put into our training made all the difference. Wouldn’t have done it anywhere else, and wouldn’t have been the instructor I am today if it wasn’t for them.” Victoria, college alumna
