It covers everything I expect to learn and even a lot of new things. I am not a fan of online training but this was put together very well. I would recommend Lion to others. I will recommend the online course to other colleagues with training requirement needs. I would recommend this course. Course content and structure are updated frequently to make annual re-training enjoyable.

I like that Lion has experts that I can contact for 1 year after the training. It was very informative, convenient, and rewarding from a career perspective.

The depth of instructor knowledge is always beyond any other training I have participated in. The material and presentation are far superior than others I have taken. Membership and access to the experts is an added bonus. No rushing through material.

Would like to take his class again. Materials provided are very useful to my day-to-day work activities. It makes it easy for me to schedule my employees' training. Very clear in the presentation and the examples helped to explain the content presented. Course manual and references were easier to use as well.

There was a lot of information to cover but time flew by. I will definitely use Lion in the future! Hazmat shipping can be a dry, complicated topic but I was engaged the entire time. In the past, I attended another training firm's classes. Now, I have no intention of leaving Lion! Lion is much better, more comprehensive than other training providers.

Excellent summary of requirements with references. Inclusion of regulations in hard copy form, as well as full electronic with state pertinent regulations included is a great bonus! One of the few training courses I can say I actually enjoyed. He presented in a very knowledgeable, personable manner. Best class I've ever attended. Will take one again. Far better than the "other" training providers our company has attended! Even after years on both sides of the comprehension coin, I find myself still learning!

The quality of the delivery exceeded much of the training I have received in the past. It was challenging and the layout was great! In-person courses go very fast without the opportunity to pause or repeat anything. Thank you for such a great program and all the help Lion has provided me over the years!
