I really enjoyed the class and the warm atmosphere from everyone involved. I did get lost at first when I got into the parking lot. I thought I was in the wrong place, but quickly realized the entrance was around the corner. I learned a lot from the class and loved the on hand training we did. Thank you! Joshua C.

Registering for courses with Zack Academy is very easy: from the process of locating relevant courses to the actual registration process, everything is seamless. NATEC is a great training facility and I always feel like our company gets its money's worth when we attend training events there: they are reasonably priced and conveniently located for us in So-Cal. The instructors there vary -- some are truly passionate and dedicated to the subject material they cover, and others are a little less invested, but I would say there are more effective instructors there than non-effective. In any event, they offer course materials that are very helpful, and they give you a way to stay connected to instructors after the training is over. The instructors are happy to answer any additional questions or concerns you might have. All in all, I really enjoy training events at NATEC. Even the staff are extremely personable and helpful. They are courteous and kind, and that goes a long way. Reza K.
