What People Say...

This course was fantastic! I am using the information I learned every day in my work.

Desiree Goetz Reynolds, MPH, Indiana University Bloomington, IL

What People Say...

By the end of Session Three, based on what I had learned, I was able to devise some worksheets for a client to complete. I am not sure if it was he or I who was more surprised at the revelations which came forth...

I haven't been this excited about learning in a long time.
