Ratings and Reviews
For me, it was a review of the information, and a few gray areas were cleared up.
Put together nicely in a very short and concise manner.
Good course, great info! Easy to follow along and very basic. I would have like to see more detail about the root cause analysis investigation, I think that would be helpful information for junior SSHO's.
