"This course had great information! Well organized and thorough! The simulations and sample scenarios were really helpful to discuss in small groups. Mike did a fantastic job explaining complicated details articulately, and I really appreciated his sense of humor and empathy for the difficult issues we navigate in HR! I will absolutely be looking for him as an instructor in other SHRM classes. Thank you for a job well done!"
