Some comments from previous attendees:

   -"After your course, the exam was deja-vu."

   -"Extremely well organized course: you stay on track and cut through
     the BS to keep presenting relevant and understandable information."

   -"I took two previous NRRPT courses (company names deleted here) and
     this was by far the best."

   -"No one has explained regulations as well as you or provided as easy
     to use thumb rules."
