Watermark worked with us as a true partner, from day one. They took the time to understand our business, our trainees, expectations and our past training experiences. Watermark even scheduled time with our trainees well before the training date, to ensure our trainees were thoroughly prepared for the class.

Interactivity is great. I actually expected a large class, but having it focused on just my own company made me comfortable to open up and get the most of the interactivity. We had fun, and that helped me learn.

In the past, I have had poor experiences with Virtual Classrooms and I was hesitant to learn this way again. However, this was, without a doubt, the best Facilitated Virtual Classroom I have ever attended.
