Aubra
The trainer academy and materials were great, very organized and dense. I’m excited to keep using it to hopefully help me pass my exam.

Hey Aubra, thank you for the review. I am glad to hear the study materials worked great for you and that they were organized to your liking. I am sure you will do great when it comes time to take the exam!
Shannon
The TrainerAcademy tools helped me to PASS my test without spending too much time studying. I used to be a trainer for years but moved into another career path and had let my certification expire. The way the content was structured and pointed to specifically what to focus on and what would be on the test allowed me to study just 6 weeks before the test, a few hours a week. Highly recommend the investment!

The overall breakdown of the test helped a ton. I enjoyed the audio of each chapter versus just reading and hearing my own voice. It really helps me to retain the information.
