    the presenter was a bit hard to hear and he spoke fast. Maybe a better quality microphone would help.

    There were some references to different personality types that came from the 70's/80's. Perhaps update that for the younger generation so its more relateable.

    Do you have any other comments, questions or concerns?
    As I'm finding out is similar with most courses... the information was at a 101 basic level. There was no relevant information or learning with how much today's market has changed in regards to frequent & forced 'take it or leave it' price increases, how supply and demand impacts negotiation and ways to leverage that, or similar updated best practices.

    Presentation was too long for content presented. Entire thing could have been presented in 45-60 minutes or less. Classes should not exceed 50 minutes, people attending have busy schedules and the content did not warrant the time investment.
