Face-to-face course reviews

Emergency Operations Centre Tour was educational and it taught us the importance of protecting nature and the complications involved during an oil spill response to mitigate the damage to nature.
Oil Spill Response Management Delegate
Excellent course, really enjoyed the training week here at OSRL, thanks for all your hard work presenting the classroom material, and for the trainer's enthusiasm on the 3 excellent field exercises. Deployment exercise very enjoyable and good practical demonstration of use of spill response equipment.
On-Scene Commander Delegate
One of the best and most relevant courses I have taken, and I would recommend to any environmental professional.
