The course was very helpful. It does continue to reference the flash drive, which is no longer provided, so I would update that and let people know where the referenced documents can be found online.

As a 100% P&T Disabled Veteran, Retired Marine, and VA Accredited Attorney, I'm amazed at the level of detail and thorough explanation. As to the included files... I feel like someone got me a new set of power tools! This is a far superior training module than provided by the American Bar Association. I wish I had selected this course when I was first admitted to the Bar. Very satisfied with the value of the course.

The level of detail and insights into the V.A. process and in assisting veteran claimants are quite sufficient. I anticipate using what I have learned to assist family members.

— Helen W., Washington

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Good practical advice on fully developed claims. Clear explanation of the Appeals Modernization System and how supplemental claims can perpetuate a claim post-BVA decision. Module 1's slide overlay re: Unauthorized Use was distracting and made reading the slides difficult (unnecessarily so, IMHO).

— Mark G., North Carolina

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

I found Mr. Day's candid remarks and critical observations refreshing. He seemed to be genuinely sensitive to the timing and cumbersome lumbering pace of many VA benefits.

— Philip B., Florida

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Thorough and to the point course, with highlighted references to text materials; clear identification of forms and their location in the materials; useful strategies to present in depth applications instead of the EZ forms and address denials.
