Galeno C. Rivera, RA, LEED AP(BD+C) – :
I participated in the Seminar on 6/15/2016, 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm, which was very detailed with both new and review information.
ed wong – :
The webinar was very informative, but I found the two-hour format is a bit long for webinar, especially when it was broadcasted during business hour. My session was interrupted by client phone calls a few time during the two hour broadcast. It would be more enjoyable and convenient if this same webinar was broadcasted in two separate one-hour sessions.
