Probably the best Unarmed certification class I have participated in. The instructor was very knowledgeable, experienced and professional. The curriculum seemed designed for multiple learning types and the instructor was able to provide examples and lead discussions to put the information into context for the learner. The Zoom format was seamless and I was grateful to complete the class from the comfort and safety of my office. I highly recommend Training Solutions International for your DPSST needs. I will be using them for my team in the future!
Bob is a very good instructor, especially when you consider how dry the material is (no offence DPSST). The added material (video’s) that Bob added is a great addition to the course. It is very apparent that Bob cares about the coursework and represents the profession very well. Thanks for the class.
I’ve been taking training courses since the 70’s. This is by far the best DPSST recert I’ve taken. I’ll be recommending to my manager to use Training Solutions Intl. for my agency.
By far the nicest, most patient, and well educated instructor I’ve ever had in my many years of taking the course. He was happy to show support in many ways by providing guidance and explanations on anything I was personally confused about. I highly recommend this class to anyone and everyone who’s at all interested. Also, being able to take it from the comfort of my own home was really great!Thank you so much! Keep being great!
Concise. Well organized. Interesting instructor-added information. Knowledgeable instructor. Slightly more expensive than other instructor offerings, but worth the convenience.I would have given 5 stars were it not for the significant class delays caused by one participate due to technical issues. I think the instructor should have dealt with the situation off-line with the individual rather than delaying the entire class. But I do appreciate his patience and professionalism.I would recommend TSI to co-workers and friends.
excellent
Well, for my very first Zoom meeting, it went surprisingly well. I have no complaints. The instructor was professional, and presented the material in a clearly understandable fashion.
Great class. Easy to do and a great instructor. I would highly suggest this class to anyone
I did the online renewal for unarmed security. The course went smooth. Try it out.
Amazing and informative.
This course was a great way to re certify. A nice combination online and video information. The instructor did a great job of presenting the information and answering questions. I would highly recommend this class.
