"Our team has just completed the program and we were really impressed.  It was a massive success and our team benefited greatly.  We saw an immediate, marked, increase in both knowledge and performance on all levels.  I believe the most valuable piece of the program was not just the knowledge of plan reading or even paperwork skills but the understanding of the value of both field and office skill sets.  That historic gap was somewhat dissolved without much of a lesson.  It was just naturally derived by the nature of the class.  I believe your team would see similar benefits that would make the class well worth the time and money."
