Great class. It was what I needed to feel that I had a firm foundation for this application. I learned Adobe GoLive on the fly; I never felt like I got as much out of that product because I just didn't know the fine points. This class was thorough. Joan was very clear in her instructions. Best of all, I never felt that twinge of frustration that I get in some training classes.

- Joan is an excellent instructor. I learned more in the first half day than I had in the last year. I would love to take another class with her.
Judy H., Fayetteville AR , July 2006 - Joan was one of the best trainers I have worked under. Very impressed at the speed at which shre rememebered and recalled everyone's names. Classes were a pleasure to be a part of - and met some really great people in the class. I will definitely recommend others taking classes under Joan at at this training center. I feel as though I can easily leave here today and design (or redesign) a website. Thank you so much!!! Kerrie C., Fort Worth Texas, July 2006
- Joan Hilbert was an outstanding instructor - she displays outstanding subject matter knowledge, enthusiasm for the product and is skilled in her vocal presentation. She kept the class on topic, even when questions veered to topics not related to DW capabilities...without shutting anyone down. Joan did a SUPER job, and I thoroughly recommend her to anyone else! Thanks, Joan! :)
- This was my first official training class on a software program. All of the other software I use was self-taught with some pointers here and there over the years from other colleagues or seminars that I had attended. This was an enjoyable learning experience and Joan was great at administering the class. Thank you!

- I am very satisfied with the overall quality of this class. I had taken a previous class Photoshop. I was satisfied with that class too. Keep up the great work. I will definitely recommend this company to my team.

- I really appreciated how thoroughly we went through all of the buttons, windows, etc. in Dreamweaver--as well as the emphasis on quick approaches to create web pages. I was sent to this class to revamp our web page in two weeks for a grant proposal. After this training, I feel more confident about doing it.
