First, I would like to say thank you for the opportunity. It was a pleasure meeting our trainers, Dr. Penny Elkins and Ms. Shelia Lewis. They were exceptional. This program is excellent and should be a requirement before working in a childcare facility. The training was intense but overall very informative. I feel very comfortable going back into a classroom with the knowledge you provided through this free program. Again, thank you for the opportunity.
