Comments

Christopher K

"Pretty informative, although a bit outdated as the main statute discussed has been updated since."

David R

"Very candid and good start on these important issues"

Colin B

"It was presented in a reasonably direct and easy to follow manner "

Taylor H

"It was fairly basic, I learned only a little bit more than could be learned from reading the statutes themselves. "

Walter N

"Big difference in speaker volume. Some were hard to hear even with the volume up all the way. Always a drag when a speaker simply reads the card put upon the screen."

January C

"Knowledgable speakers but materials could have been more crisp. Also, it would be helpful to minimize the slides when people are talking."

Joy R

"missing some information. "

Edwin R

"It was very informative, specifically on the new issue of sealing records and second chances. "

Joseph E
