Over time, the city transformed into a winter haven for wealthy folks visiting by steamboat and train. Banking and insurance flourished.

This (5S) training was beneficial and provided sufficient detail for a student entering the course with no previous background or knowledge of the course subject. Instructor stories and examples were entertaining and kept discussion flowing.

Our MBBC trainer was very knowledgeable and informative in every area. The training was great for people with little to no experience or those with some experience already. He catered to what we previously knew about ISO/IATF. The course allowed me to practice my own skills which I liked most because you don't learn without trying. You also don't know what you don't know so having an instructor with all his experience / expertise helped foresee possible issues we may run into in the future so we are equipped to handle those.
