“Had the opportunity to experience a presentation from SkillsCamp. Though done remotely and online, their energy came through and distance didn't detract from the validity of her points. Lots of good takeaways and insights to help myself and my company improve. Specifically, the instructor had very relatable examples and a humorous and playful delivery. This could be a dry topic, but they brought it to life in an exceptional way. They recognized the challenge of keeping everyone engaged and had interactive elements to do so. Looking forward to future sessions with SkillsCamp.”
