Hi Jimmy,
Just wanted to drop you a line (pardon the pun)…to say THANK YOU for the great instruction on the MED3
and SVOP courses. You delivered the content in an easily digestible format and it was a great group of
students. It was informative and enjoyable!
I’m just a few weeks away from opening my Charter business, so I’ll keep you posted when we officially
launch.
Thanks again…let’s keep in touch!
