Training Cruise Testimonials
Everyone has a great time on our training cruises.  Here are some of the comments made by past students .

Scott from Cambridge, MA said:
Excellent instructor and great environment.  Technology actually works; in many classrooms technology is old and poorly functioning.  All works well here.  Provides comfortable atmosphere to learn in.  Fosters learning.

Troy from Midland, MI said:
Excellent atmosphere!
Instructor is very personable.  Easy to get along with so asking questions didn't make you feel uncomfortable.

The cruise/class was great.  The atmosphere provided a great place to network with other NetWare professionals in a way that a regular class would not.  The environment was extremely comfortable so questions and comments came easily.  The course was a bargain even without the cruise.  The fact that the cruise was basically thrown in for free was awesome!  The remoteness of the cruise was also nice to eliminate the distractions of pagers and cell phones!

Feel free to have anyone contact me if they want my opinion (recommendation)!!

Charlie from Philadelphia, PA said:
I thought the course was very good.  The instructor obviously has a strong knowledge of all the topics discussed.  The knowledge I gained from this course will definitely help me with my server administration responsibilities.
Having the training on a cruise ship is a great idea.  It is a relaxing environment.  Being away from the office and home made it better to concentrate on the training.

Jeremy from Columbus, OH said:
The concept of training on a cruise ship worked out very well.  The instructor's personal experience added a great deal to the training.  Instructor has excellent understanding of the material and presentation skills.  I would highly recommend this instructor and environment (training on a cruise) to others.

Todd from Rocklin, CA said:
The lab exercises were very good.  Gave ample opportunity to practice what we learned.  (Instructor was) very knowledgeable and likeable.  Worked well with students and answered all questions.  Provided much insight to NDS.

This class is well worth the time and money spent.  The lab exercises provide more than ample opportunity to practice the course objectives.  The course will provide an insight into NDS that will definitely help you troubleshoot your Directory.

Art from Las Vegas, NV said:
A knowledgeable instructor with good teaching and presentation skills.

Might have missed this course because it sounded too good to be true.  It was everything promised.  The course material was well presented.  The focus of the course was never lost while leaving time for shipboard and shore activities.  I learned a lot in class and had fun while doing it.  I would highly recommend future courses/cruises with Frank.  Both my wife and I had the most enjoyable time.

Chris from NJ said:
Everything was great.  Frank did a great job with the course.

Scott from Bartley, NJ said:
Great idea.  Would like to see more of these creative ideas.

Maria from Baltimore, MD said:
Comfortable atmosphere and surroundings.  Food and services close by.  Equipment worked better in this class than in any other I've ever taken.  Most knowledgeable and best organized instructor I've ever had.

David from Lansdale, PA said:
The cruise environment was an odd idea at first, but it ended up being a great idea.

Joe from Framingham, MA said:
Loved the cruise.  The whole idea worked very well.  Very well organized.

John from Cambridge, MA said:
The most impressive part of the course is in the clarity of the presentation by the instructor.  His preparation for the class and his preparation of the PCs we used in class was superb.  Any other classes I have taken pale by comparison.
Frank took loads of time to field questions and give explanations.  This is quite different from my experience in other classes.

Paul from Framingham, MA said:
The course was well run and the classroom environment was well set up.  Frank has a depth of subject knowledge, and an easy going manner, making for an excellent course.
Considering you get a top notch 40 hour NetWare course, and a fantastic cruise experience all for the cost of a typical 1 week course, it should be an easy sell for your manager to approve the class.  I hope to come back next year.

Paul from Berkshire, United Kingdom said:
I would never have thought that a cruise liner could be such a conducive environment for training.  IT WORKS!  and it works very well.  Do not be fooled however, this is not a jolly.  (Editor's note: If you are not familiar with the term, "not a jolly" means that the cruise is not a boondoggle...you take a course and work hard during the class.)

Glenn from  Elyria, OH said:
The cruise provided an excellent environment for learning with few interruptions.

Eric from Paris, France said:
How can I say "It is on a CRUISE !!!! and was the most coolest course".  Everything was great in this course; the material, the instructor, the cruise.  I will be there for next training cruise.  Thanks a lot.

John from New York, NY said:
Great  Course!

John from Allentown, PA said:
Miles from the ordinary.

Cheryl from Cornelius, OR said:
This was a very good format for learning.  I learned as much or more in this format than I have in more traditional formats and had the added benefit of being on a cruise.  It also allowed for more interaction with other attendees.  I would definitely recommend this course format to others.
The accommodation of the  instructor and his family during times when activities were not available for my granddaughter was very appreciated and much more than expected.
I liked the format of using VM to be able to work on each exercise independently.  The exercises were easy to follow and repeatable.  The reference material will be useful even after the course is completed
