attended on February 24, 2020 Well the course it’s intended to be helpful, but it doesn’t help having plans that you can’t practice the measurements on, the coach is great instructor , the materials doesn’t help that’s the only problem

Our instructor Rick is great and did a wonderful job. He took his time with us and explained the process very well. He did not rush through the material and used the whole 32 hours. He took his time reading the book with us and answering all questions along the way no matter how long it took. I would refer this class and hope they get Rick.

I enjoyed the instructor and the class as a whole. I've been reading blueprints for a long time but I still learned a few things and I wanted to have a piece of paper to prove it. Dave is very easy going and completely knowledgeable. Fun course.

My greatest experience was meeting Steven. He's a really great teacher, how he's patient and how he explains things. My boss is happy and this has helped me get better in ways throughout my job with the company. I'd recommend the school to anyone who is trying to learn.

Steve is the best instructor I have ever had in my life. He taught things very practically and try to picturize and make sense of everything he taught. I would like to take others classes with Steve aswell. Thanks CSLS for give us such a nice instructor.

attended on August 14, 2017 The hand book and materials were excellent I learned a lot from the book and exercises. The facilities were a little disappointing, no trash can in our room and the men's bathroom in-use lock did not work and the light would go out on you in about 15 seconds which you would have to wave your hand to keep on.

Very informative and easy to understand. Will work one on one if you do not understand something. Not just reading out of a book and expecting for students to understand. Very repetitive on terms and ideas to help them soak in your head. Still have 2 more class sessions to complete. So far so good.
