When and Where
"My schedule is very hectic, so I loved the fact that I didn't have to commit to
a whole day of training. Instead, I could get valuable information when and
where I wanted it.
Specific Procedures

my favorites. They gave me additional points of view and specific procedures
to follow, which I found very helpful when dealing with others."
