Good class but bad organization of information! The class being 9 days straight was expected BUT the curriculum being taught by your instructors did not match the information given to us. We found ourselves having to take picture of slides and writing down almost full paragraphs because we could not find the information in our copy of the PowerPoints. The instructors were wonderful and the location was great. I just wish the organization of the material was better considering we spent $3000 for the course not including hotel and flights. This must be changed for future classes!

Great experience--would recommend The school was a great experience and I felt very prepared afterward. My only complaint was the course was taught by two separate teachers (the first for the first few days, and the second for the end).....I just felt that there were inconsistencies and very different styles of teaching. This was not necessarily a bad thing, however, during such an intensive program, consistency would have been greatly appreciated.

Norton School The second, and primary instructor, saved the day! She was superb! With her instruction, I felt like I knew what I was doing by the end of the course. Now, after having some experience with actual patients, I feel like I am sufficiently equipped to perform good care. The first instructor was very poor. She seemed overwhelmed and would contradict herself frequently, creating an environment of mistrust. I also didn't like the location of the class. It was in a congested area of the city and parking was difficult. Our room was in the basement of a hotel with no windows and uncomfortable chairs. Time was scheduled to learn from a live lymphedema patient, but the opportunity did not arise. Looking back, it would have been a good experience to actually see someone with lymphedema other than in a picture. Overall, I felt like I was well-prepared.

Norton School- Norton School- My time with the educators was very valuable. I learned skills that I am currently applying in my daily practice. I would highly recommend this certification course. One benefit from the class was the two instructors. one the first 1/2 and a different the second 1/2. While this was frustrating at first I can now see the reason for this and the benefit for my current practice. The reason for 4 stars and not 5 is that even though I took the class over a year ago I still feel the venue provided the best environment for this class.
