  4. Sarah – KILLEEN ISD (verified owner)

    I felt this course was a bit more difficult to navigate to the others, and I did not feel like the information stood out to me as much as previous courses have. Overall, I enjoyed it, but it was not my favorite.

  5. Jennifer – CORPUS CHRISTI ISD (verified owner)

    While this course was informative, I prefer to be in a face to face training where I can have interaction and discussions with other participants.

    I wasn’t looking forward to it in Module 1 but it greatly improved and I learned a lot of crucial information about tiering and compacting and thoroughly enjoyed this course.
