What our previous attendees have to say about our seminars:

Edward Yoon
Los Angeles Police Protective League
Great seminar. The speakers were really engaging and they were well-versed in their topics.

Chris Cox
Association of Professional Police Officers, Aurora, Illinois
The content of the seminar was beyond what I expected. It was extremely well-prepared
and presented. I especially liked the dual role presentations from both
perspectives (labor and management).

Roland Aguirre
San Antonio Firefighters Association
The content and speakers were great. All presenters very obviously had 'been there, done that' experience.

Karen Tracy
City of Billings, Montana
I had high expectations for this seminar and those expectations were exceeded. Fairly balanced between labor and management.
