"I've worked at the NYC DOT for more than twenty-three years and in that time I have attended many different types of training, working groups, and seminars. Duane Andrews might be the best all around trainer/instructor I've ever met. His best quality was his ability to create the comfortable feeling of a one-on-one training environment despite the twenty-five other students in the session."John P.
