You may be dreading having to take this class, because I know I was. I am here to tell you not to dread it. The class is full of interesting information, videos, and real stories of people who were affected by lead poisoning, etc. It was pretty interesting. Sure, there were some boring parts, but aren't all classes? The instructor I had did a great job presenting the materials. At the end of the course, you get to do hands on stuff, which I found to be alot of fun and very interesting. As for signing up for the class, how easy that was. I also loved how I received several e-mails reminding me of the class (they must have known how forgetful I am) HA HA. Anyway, all in all, my experience from sign up to the end of the class was great. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
