Austin Reik General / Building Inspector – 4 years
★★★★★ 5/5
This is the ONLY way to go!
The Course helped extremely, the instructor was patient with all the students to ensure the knowledge was learned by each of the students. I have taken 2 of the online courses and the in-class course was a lot more hands-on and one on one time if needed, if weaker in on subject more than another. I would highly recommend this class to any inspectors or anyone in the position to need to know this knowledge or how to prepare for this API 1169 exam. This is the ONLY way to go!

★★★★★ 5/5
Class was everything that I was hoping it would be.
The class was everything that I was hoping it would be after reading all reviews online. Definitely held up to its expectations. I especially liked the size of our class. It gave us more individual time to have 1 on 1 conversations about any difficulties understanding sections of the material.
