I had a wonderful experience in the class. I had no experience with Crystal Reports at the beginning of the week and now I feel comfortable enough to create basic to intermediate reports all on my own. Joel was a wonderful instructor and provide real life feedback and training to better assist me with learning the new skills.

I have been working with (the) course content for almost 10 years, and was still able to learn something new. Our instructor was clear and concise and was careful not to go off topic even when we students could very easily do that. He kept us on track and ON TIME! Awesome!

Just a quick note to let you know how much I enjoyed Donna as my trainer. SO MUCH to learn and she was wonderful, patient (my pc was acting up) and had many real life scenarios to bring each feature into focus. Very good and I would highly recommend your company!

The course instructor was upbeat and very knowledgeable in her area of expertise, as well as other areas of related subjects. She was willing to talk about real world scenarios, and answered all of my questions thoroughly. I would definitely look into taking more SkillForge courses.
Adam S.
for Crystal Reports 2008 Introduction Training
This is my first experience taking an online/instructor led class. I was a little hesitant at first but I needed to have this skill set in preparation of our implementation. It was a very positive experience! My instructor was very easy to talk to, was a great listener and was very knowledgeable with the material. I tend to ask a lot of questions, and he was very patient and complimentary of the content in which I was asking about. I will not hesitate to take an online instructor led class in the future!!

for Camtasia Training
With a low student/instructor ratio, I felt more like I was working with a personal tutor than just one of many in a large class. The instructor was super knowledgeable and personable. The entire class was very useful and enjoyable. This class was a very valuable use of my time.

I really enjoy the hands on nature of the courses, without having to travel. It makes for a very economical and productive learning experience. The access to the instructors after the class is a great benefit as well. I always plan for a challenging project after the class to take advantage of their guidance!

Dan (my teacher) was a great teacher. It was an online class and he was able to keep me interested in the topic the entire day for 2 days. The course material was very easy and clear. I was able to do the labs without any trouble. Overall, I love the course and I will recommend my manager to use this training company and teacher.

Roger was an amazing instructor. The pace of the class was perfect and we were able to cover all of the material in 3 days with exact use cases on how to apply to what we do. He is very personable and easy to ask questions to. I love the extra tidbits he added in about tricks in Excel also. GREAT CLASS!
Nikki W.
Humana
for Microsoft Project Training
I learned a ton of information in two days, and appreciated Bryon’s (our instructor’s) enthusiasm for the program as well as his ability to answer questions clearly and offer examples. I asked a question that he did not know the answer to, and he did some research at the break and came back with a solution. I can visualize how my office could use MS Project to more effectively manage projects, and I look forward to trying out the tools and shortcuts I’ve learned in class.

for Adobe Photoshop Training
I had never done an on-line class before and enjoyed it very much. I got just as much out of it, if not more doing it this way. I will take a class like this again if needed in the future. My instructor was great!! I also liked the one on one attention as we could cover any questions. This has taken my fear of the unknown product away and I am ready to dive in.
Ziecha N.

This class was great for taking users from beginning to intermediate levels of understanding. I’m so glad this class was offered virtually in a 1 to few atmosphere so that we could have all of the instructors attention.

Althea was great. Very positive, very into xslt. She had a lot to cover. She was flexible and answered all of the questions. But gave real world examples. I could have spent 5 days doing this…I would recommend Althea and would take another class from her for sure.

for Crystal Reports 2011 Introduction Training
I very much enjoyed this Crystal Reports class. Seth (my instructor) did a great job of trying to make it fun, and interesting. He covered the Lessons thoroughly, at a good pace, not too fast or slow. He was happy to answer all my questions, taking a look at my computer when needed. The headset worked perfectly. I am recommending this type of training to anyone who asks! (And the course ran, even though I was the only one registered!)

My expectations were definitely exceeded for this course. I had a bias towards courses with onsite instructors but the flexibility of [the online classroom] meant that this course was really just as good as any conventionally taught course. Donna [my instructor] was very professional, knowledgable, and helpful. And the little gifts (free mug, mints, and headset) were a delightful surprise.

Aletha was an excellent instructor! Very knowledgeable. The training was interactive and I had plenty of opportunity to ask questions. Aletha checked in with me often to make sure I understood the material. She did a good job of relating the material to programming languages and concepts that I was already familiar with. This was my first time taking an online class. I would recommend SkillForge to anyone considering a live instructor-led online class.

I just completed the Camtasia training with Donna and it was fantastic. She is incredibly resourceful, patient, humorous, and enjoyable to work with. This was my first SkillForge training, and I feel really confident after this experience. If I need additional future training I will most definitely turn to SkillForge (and Donna) for those needs. I’m looking forward to WOWing my company with my new video editing skills!!
