Student Comments on Abuse and Neglect: "Hello Care Courses! Yes everything has went very well with my courses! I have just sent in 3 courses to be graded for myself and my assistant whom also took the courses. The courses were very informative and very helpful, we will be taking more in the near future! Your help there has been wonderful and I appreciate it greatly..." - Oneonta, New York "This course was so interesting. I truly enjoyed it. Thank you for being there for us. Looking forward to the next one." - Colorado Springs, Colorado "Thank you for following up with me. I received and completed the two courses already and found that they were informative as well as interesting. I have taken many trainings over the past twenty years for child care, and this, I do say was one of the easiest and had the most useful info. Not boring as I thought it would have been." -- Maryland, New York |
