After completing payment, I was unable to access the course after several attempts. I do not have a smart phone. I was finally refunded my payment. I will take the course elsewhere. Mike

This is my fourth or fifth year and doing this and it’s an easy review of the rules of the road. You can do over many days.

The flexibility to complete it over multiple days is something our students really value. We look forward to seeing you again next year!
Course was well presented and easy to take. My wife and I took the course in one weekend and we had our certificates within a week.

Almost everything. I was not allowed to move on to the next modules. I had no luck in my attempts to contact customerservice for support. So I lost the money I paid for the course.
