Instructor comments: some kind of presentation would have been helpful in learning the objectives of the course (PowerPoint, drawing on easel, etc.) It seemed like the instructor is not too familiar with the error codes we were receiving during the Practice Exams.

Facilities comments: preferred to have the location located in a less busy area of the city

User: smaxam

Instructor comments: Clay was very knowledgable but had to repeat questions a number of times to get his attention.

Facilities comments: Holiday Inn was nice
