It’s was an pleasant experience from the moment I walked through the door. All the way to the class. My instructors were very knowledgeable. And taught a way that we could soak it all in. Never once they made you feel out of place if you didn’t know or understand any part of the lesson. MPT has earned an continuous student in me. Thank you MPT

Provided course notes are good, helpful with the exam. But also provide a course reference guide or handbook as in all other MPT courses. The practical fire simulation was very good and real. very knowledgeable instructors. great course overall.

The instructor has a great pace, his method of teaching is logical and builds a great foundation to expand upon as you continue through the week. I enjoyed learning and absorbing the material rather than cramming. One of the best instructors I have had here at mpt.
