I found the exam was a little hard to pass. It seemed like the materials didn't support or connect well with the exam. I do have experience managing worker's comp in several manufacturing companies so I have a decent foundation of understanding.

The course information was very helpful, but the test didn't logically follow from the course material. The instructor mentions additional work comp courses that will go into more detail on some of the issues discussed...yes please!

Very good course. Super informative and dense with content. I did find the exam difficult to pass, however. I took it 3 times. Perhaps the course could have been longer.

This course was okay. I think the instructor is very knowledgeable; but, the slides moved too quickly during the presentation while I was taking notes.

It's a challenge for me to get interested in this material and it would be helpful to see the correct responses once the exam is taken/passed.
