Instructor (Bill) was very knowledgeable of this course, he had many examples to help us visualize both from course & personnel. He also took plenty of time to stop and explain topics we were not quite clear on. We could tell he was well prepared. I left this class feeling that I was more prepared to accomplish my goals better……Thanks

Bill's enthusiasm for ICRA training helps keep everyone engaged. It was a refresher course for myself and a great reminder of how important ICRA is.

The instructor was very informed and presented the information in a way that was pleasing to comprehend. Although the course was long the instructor did a good job keeping everyone engaged by asking questions and answering questions with enthusiasm. The course was a great learning experience and opened my eyes to be more observant in my work place!

Greg is very knowledgeable in the training topic. Synaptics uses Zoom for distance meeting/training. Struggled a little bit with Webex in the beginning.

This course was very informational. A significant portion was not pertinent to my business due to our operations as a very small waste generator, so I am wondering if it could've been tailored to cut out the extra bits. The handouts provided prior to the course along with the review activity were helpful to keep me engaged and learning. Greg was very knowledgeable about the subject and could answer all of our questions.

Great introduction to ICRA - giving a good baseline for future education. Instructor was very accommodating (we had a few technical issues on our end) and also very personable and engaging. It definitely was more like listening to a podcast - stayed interesting & easy to follow, as opposed to some long, drawn out training seminar. Will be recommending to colleagues, and will be looking up to see what other course offerings may be available.
