- A word from our students -
Doug Wood presented the material very well. He faciliated group discussions, where we all learned from each other. He did a great job walking us through knowledge check questions, and discussing the pros and cons of each response. He also had some interesting stories from his lived experience that helped us understand the concepts more fully.
