To whom it may concern,

When Mike announced his 4 day training course through The Concrete Store, I immediately jumped at the
opportunity and I'm glad I did.

The wealth knowledge shared by Mike with his student’s way surpassed my expectations. It is clear that Mike has
the experience to back his teaching, both theoretically and practically. Using countertops as a medium, the focus
was on the technologies available to us as fabricator and how to use these technologies effectively. It is easy to
see how Mike's insight helps students understand and appreciate what premix GFRC has to offer our businesses.

Tommy (The Traveling Concrete Gnome) added an extra dimension to what we do with concrete as artists. Tommy
is a true artist and so passionate about what he does. Nothing will stand in the way of him sharing his knowledge
and experience with others.

And if the Cook Brothers were not enough, add to the mix Jason Campbell of Arete Development Group. What a
great and unexpected surprise! Jason's wealth of knowledge and experience with regards to small business and
entrepreneurship is amazing. Jason is a true teacher, engaging with students on every level. In addition to his
passion for education and business, he can hold his own when it comes to concrete!

The numerous vendors that Mike pulled in to give presentation all understood the industry well and I was pleased
that none of them turned their presentations into sales pitches.

Time and money well spent.
Thanks again guys.
