Do you have any other comments, questions or concerns?
This was all open ended questions and he never actually gave real answers in his presentation. I am extremely disappointed that i spent 200 for this course and I will never do another Aurora course again.

The presenter just read most of the screens and had us underline words. It would have been more helpful just to read the presentation.

David had the conviction of an evangelist. This was not just a refresher on information you already possessed, but an encouragement to do an unbiased self-assessment.

I was hoping for more focus on how to improve on the skills for multi-tasking. "Delegate and elevate..." etc.

Do you have any other comments, questions or concerns?
I think the topic was too broad. I would prefer to have this broken down into two segments. One for law/ethics and one about collections. Because so many topics were being presented, they were not really in depth - just a basic overview. I prefer to learn more specifics/examples about the topics than just definitions.
