This class was extremely helpful. As our company does not really have anyone with in-depth knowledge in regard to EDI it was great to finally be able to understand the data I had been struggling to understand on my own for years. Even though we use a 3rd party EDI provider I realized it is important to still understand how to interpret the raw data being sent to us. I highly recommend this course for any company using EDI even if they are not mapping in house.

The EDI course provided very thorough and complete training. The exercises done in the course as a group were the most valuable part of the traning. All in all a very good training course.

Michael's in depth knowledge and experience made the class very educational. He uses real life examples to demonstrate how EDI can be implemented and used. Michael engages students to discuss their EDI experiences and offers guidance. His classes are very educational and fun.

For someone with minimal EDI training I really enjoyed the level of detail that was presented in the class along with the real world scenarios that were shared. Very Good class and I would recommend it to anyone working with EDI.
