    Everything about this class was top-notch, but it could have incorporated more practice. There were 2-3 practice scenarios/day and they were each unique and challenging which was great. The concepts and principles take a while to sink-in in practice though and more practice would have been a nice addition. Even extending it one more day to do so.
