Clint was the instructor. I really enjoyed this CPC course. The people on the course made it for me. Wonderful experience. Unfortunately this will be my last one. I’m 64 now. So please understand that I won’t be doing another one. However, I really enjoyed this one. Thank you very much indeed. Kindest regards Tim
