Thank you again for the great course. Though the possible downside for me is that I have had to look more closely at everything I am doing - which can be a bit unnerving at times.

I waited to fully report my opinion of the course until I had an opportunity to see how much it affected my day to day work.
After nearly two months, I can only describe the information I learned as invaluable. It has not only increased my accuracy and efficiency, but I have successfully managed to locate areas of our infrastructure that had thus far eluded me!

The class was not at all what I expected. I figured with my experience, I would learn a little. That was not the case at all.
I truly believe if I had taken it earlier in my career I would have been able to troubleshoot locates more accurately.

Your presentation techniques and explanations for the group was outstanding. We had guys in the room that ranged from GEDs to advanced college degrees, electrical engineers to civil engineers, and I think everyone understood the concepts and the practical applications and limitations.

What a class. At first I didn't feel I would benefit at all from this
class, boy I was wrong. Thank you.... it was very informative and
enjoyable.

To be honest, after 20 years of locating
I didn't
think I would learn much.
I was pleasantly surprised.

I hope other regulators will take
advantage of the education you offer
to
raise their understanding of the complexities and limitations of locating.

I attended your course at Manteno, IL
and would like to
say
that it was a really great experience
and well worth
the time.
Your instructor was extremely
knowledgeable, helpful,
friendly,
and persuasive in getting us to
try new techniques.

The things we learned there became the catalyst for completely redefining the project we were working on. Before Staking U, the project seemed like "well, we have to do something, guess this is it." This was impossible to actually feel good about it. After Planet Underground, we pretty much reinvented the project, and now every time I look at it I get enthusiastic. Thank you again for hosting us and for teaching us so much.

I have been locating for seven years and I finally got the training I should have gotten back when I started.
I understand more about my machine now than I could have ever gotten from the book that came with it.

I was able to learn valuable techniques to have better confidence in my locates. I had several issues regarding conflicting signals from neighboring utilities in the trench, i.e. frequency selection, detecting the presence or absence of a round signal and signal distortion during a locate. I was able to bring back a lot of information to my company which validates the cost of the training.

One
of the best classes I’ve been involved in and also
one of the best instructors.
