Empowering and informative! I love to be empowered to help others. The more you know about your rights the better. What really stood out was the question and answer period. The grouping of professionals there were diverse. Together they gave you a holistic overview from start to finish. From the minute you fine yourself in problems, what to do, how to get back on your feet; from point a to b. Everyone who spoke had a different vantage point.

Ms. Indirah Belle

Law Enforcement Officer

It was information packed; very organized. They were A one presenters. It left a lasting impression. It was an eye-opener; a blessing. I could still remember the lessons learnt and putting them now into practice. Knowledge is power! It’s the only way you can make good quality decisions. You need to be there because I’m sure you can use the information.
