“I completed the lessons over the weekend and I just wanted to say thank you for the opportunity to learn from this course! It was like the ED orientation I didn’t know I needed. It was wonderful information and useful to me while being in my first year. Chapters 3-5 were my personal favorites, but if I had to narrow it down 3 and 5 were the most beneficial. The information felt geared towards me even though it’s tailored to fit multiple organizations. I would take this as refresher in the future as well.”
