Reviews
Classes were well put together and very informative. Bob does a great job of conducting these classes.
Excellent content. Very informative and on demand access made it very convenient.
Great class
Great info.
Thank you
Very good material
Good Information
It's good to get a refresher of the Rules and Guidelines, not to mention all the little changes and requirements that are now are responsibility
The class overall was in depth and provided a significant amount of information both for legacy and new systems. The content associated with changes was key especially the information for new codes i.e temperature of areas where security video wiring is run and the new codes associated with jacketing for installation in these areas
This was an excellent well prepared group of classes that target our industry very well. Extremely helpful to be able to take classes ondemand/online, especially being from NY, driving to the in person classes is very time consuming.
Good review of the electrical basics
Great details from Bob as always!
Bob does a great job at leaving no stone unturned. This is why we always go to him to make us a better company. Thank You Bob
Bob does a wonderful job. There is no question that he is truly an experienced expert.
It was very detailed
Good review of the material as always. Maybe some quizes would be good to keep us on our toes.
This class was great, as besides reviewing content I have been thru a hundred times, it is updated with new changes in code and thought on various parts of the installation and code process, very very good
The class is well done and methodical. Bob gives real world examples and explains everything in detail. There was some overlap between the Barrier Free Code and the ADA; however the distinctions were also specific. The detail on smoke detection and the changes that have evolved through the years - especially over the last few years was covered very well.
I like that I could take the class at my leisure! All my questions were answered.
Convenient and informative
Very informative.
I’ve always liked attending Bob’s classes. He is a great instructor.
Bob is very thorough and clear in all the classes. I would recommend to all.
Excellent
For me this works out Great, because I'm traveling a lot for my job so being able to do online is paramount.
Always very informative and interactive
great class
Like always Bob's classes are fantastic
As always very good coverage all topics
Well organized, excellent CEU Program.
Very informative
This class is fine but it would be nice for NJ to require some different courses not always the same required.
Very well laid out
As always, informative with clear delivery of contents
The program needed some modifications to become user friendly - and to become comparable as a required training platform to many other programs for the alarm industry that have been around for some time.
As always the information is beneficial. I recall some a lot of the information from from past classes but it a good refresh.
