"It was very helpful and Mr Fisher was excellent and answered many questions I have had."

Cassandra B

"I have been working in the mental health field since 1989. I have had to attend many trainings on culture/diversity and this was one of the best trainings that I have attended on this subject. The presenter used very enlightening terms and concepts that made me think about myself and how I work with and relate to others. The presenter stayed energetic and engaged his audience during the whole training. I would happily recommend another colleague to take this training with this presenter."
