The following are comments from recent PSI training participants who used Zoom:
“This course exceeded my expectations. I was hesitant to do it via Zoom but now believe it was the best thing I could do. I learned so much about how mediation work now a days on Zoom. I would have missed that had I done it in person.” ElizabethSalinas-Van Orman, Attorney
“Zoom trainings are tough to make this valuable. It was just more excellent than I could have ever understood. I am really excited about everything I learned this week in the mediation class. I am so impressed with how the class went.” Jennifer Gessert LPC
“Both presenters are very talented and convey information in a clear manner. Following along, even via Zoom, is a breeze. I’m able to take notes, highlight, and draw diagrams from the slides that all helped my understanding of the course content.” Matt Harutun
