I can't say enough about American Emergency Response Training group. Jody Rood and team bring not only the latest innovations for equipment but the training we have received is excellent. The Instructors are very knowledgeable in their training expertise areas and have pertinent application skills;" been there and done that," which gives you much better training than Instructors who are only teaching theory. I feel this is even more important as we bring a younger age group into the workforce who will be on our internal Emergency Response Team. Bill Williams, Operations Safety Superintendent, Covestro
