David Winston’s course is fin-nominal!  I was worried it  would be too much and even though the material came at me quickly, I found I was able to adapt and improve my learning skills readily. However  it is great!  I’ll walk away with skills I acquired and copious amounts of information to review and use, to help others enrich their lives.  The staff wants you to succeed and will help you to understand the materials. It was so nice to be part of the 2014 2016 class.  I will look forward to helping others.  It is hard to believe the two year program is over, I have learned so much and look forward to my future.
