Mark Hacker was a great host Mark Hacker was a great host, presenter, trainer. I could understand best when he gave real-life situations. I do recommend the material give more examples with full scenario outcomes (more examples of what they had come up with).

2 Good presentations Two out of the five presenters held my attention. I really thought that Shelly and Justin's material and presentation was the most thought provoking. 2nd would be Elora's presentation. The others felt like they were just reading their slides.

Unorganized I took the Strategic Workforce Planning (SWP) Certification and it was very unorganized with lots of technology issues. The instruction was an hour late the first day and tried to keep us late the second day. Plus have the time she was unable to share her screen due to technology issues. I wish the instructor had a second person helping as I think it would've been a better experience. I can't remember much of what I learned because it was disjointed and interrupted by tech issues. It was not worth the money due to these issues.

Recertification Process is a Joke Don't expect to have an easy time trying to figure out how many credits you have towards recertifcation. They require a certain amount of credits, but there is not an easy way to determine how many you have. You need to count them invidually. Then to make matters worse, their recertification process requires you to upload a copy of your HCI transcript, but that cannot be downloaded. I guess they want you to screenshot it. I am incredibly disappointed, but have to play their games because I need recertification.

Excellent 3 day training session Excellent 3 day training session. I recommend at various times throughout the day to have people stand while they're being trained. All topics were very interesting and I gained great insight. Mark did an excellent job presenting.
