    I feel this course provided a great overview of WEP’s. I now have a better understanding of them.

  2. Tabitha – WESTERN BROWN LOCAL (verified owner) –

    This course was a good introduction into writing a WEP. I did have to pause it a few times and rewind, because the presented spoke a little too quickly at times.

  3. Paula – WESTERN BROWN LOCAL (verified owner) –

    This course was informative, easy to understand and met my goal of understanding WEPs better.

    The presenter seemed well versed in this area.

  6. Katherine – WESTERN BROWN LOCAL (verified owner) –

    While it was short, it was informative on a limited basis. I have been a part of writing WEPs due to my son being on one and most of this information I knew.

    A good general overview of what a WEP is and what is required in the state of Ohio.
