What Attendees Are Saying...
“I liked that there was a deep dive into the details and working relationships with all “systems”. I love that it was interactive, questions were encouraged and addressed in the moment rather than held until the end and Brian was invested in making sure attendees understood what was being said.”
“It was so clear and easy to understand. I’ve attended several transition webinars presented by others but always left with my head spinning. And that tool to figure out benefits… amazing.”
“The trainer was absolutely incredibly relatable, kind, professional and intelligent!”
“I have taken several SSI &SSDI trainings and I finally feel like I get it. The presenter was very clear with her delivery of information and kept the flow of the information consistent. The slides were concise and easier to understand than previous trainings I have attended.”
