    Lots of technical difficulties experienced with this training - put a large delay on my certification. IT problems such as my assignment being erased, and not being able to be marked as "complete" because I emailed in and did not request the proficiency testing in this site.

    The narrative was too fast, impossible to take note without rewinding it. I wish it could have been available in French. Failing a quiz jeopardizes the entire course
