The glass was good with the information covered well. When we were building the door covering I wasn't quite clear on how to do it. I'm sure the teacher would have explained it better if we had to ask. Before doing it he has given some explanation but with no plastic or anything so it just made it hard for me to conceive how it should be done. I think one of the people working in my group new from another situation so they were able to do it with no extra explanation. The teacher spoke rather fast. I was able to get about 95% of what he said. I have taken the class previously to I was able to keep up. There was a time that I was not clear but he handle my questions good. Peter D.

Pleased to have taken part in this Lead Safety for RRP Rule certification course conducted by Zack Akademy. The operators were very courteous and attentive to provide me with accurate information on my questions before registration. The 8 hour course held at the Big Apple headquarters Occupational Safety in NY was well equipped. Instructor was very prepared and active especially he had very well prepared the two hours where he explained with practical methods how to protect the workers and home owner during the works, the two practical hours were the key to understanding and made the test easy .
