Jackson, I hope you'll be all over this thread. I'm jealous of your critical thinking and evaluation skills when it comes to this kind of thing.
Soon, a fellow INGO Mod and I will be taking a class from a new training company operating out of west-central Indiana. The price is extremely inexpensive (for now), I had the day free, plus it's near my parents so I can see them when the class is over. Mr. Mod and I signed up mostly to kind of evaluate the trainer/class to see if we can recommend it to others.
So - how to really evaluate the training as to A) give good feedback to the trainer, and B) give a good review here on INGO?
What questions should I ask of the trainer when it comes to drills/skills? Ask applicability/practicality? I know there'll be a short "vehicle unit" in the class - and I'm already apprehensive about it as far as applicability/practicality in every day life. Might it be fun to do...sure. Necessary for Joe Lunchpail? Not so sure.
What would you be on the lookout for in taking a class from an upstart / unknown?
