Pay Setting was a great class with a knowledgeable instructor. I would recommend this for new HR staff. Rhonda was a great instructor. She was very knowledgeable and helpful. She had great energy to keep the class motivated and locked in. She knew the material and was able to manage time with precision, instructing each module within appropriate timeframes.

I feel like I learned a lot over the past few days, especially through the individual and group exercises. There is a lot of information and regulations to be aware of, but having real case study examples has been very helpful in grasping the information for someone who is new to qualifications analysis and classification. I really appreciate having and utilizing the training resources and links document throughout this course. I will definitely be referring to those resources, as well as the Participant Guide, in the future.

As always, Graduate School USA is a very useful resource for government employees. The new platform makes the online course registration, course experience, and transcript management a lot easier than before. Very knowledgeable and experienced instructor. Very respectful. Maintained good management of time and discussions.

This was informative, and I walked away with a better understanding of the class materials as well as how to navigate the OPM website for classification specifics. Mr. White was very knowledgeable and able to share several personal experiences to clarify certain points.

This class was amazing, Bob did an amazing job keeping us engaged with real-life scenarios! I think this class overall was very great and informative. I would recommend this to other potential supervisors.

Bob was an amazing instructor. He had so much knowledge in the material that he was teaching, which made it easy to understand. Not only did he teach the class, but he also made sure that we completely understood what he was teaching. I would definitely recommend this course to my coworkers who collaborate with HR personnel, and I would definitely attend more classes if Bob were the instructor.

The instructor was engaging, knowledgeable, presented material clearly, and provided relevant examples to support.

The instructor's solid knowledge of the material helped students interact and engage during class. The class material was well organized, making it easy to understand.

I would love to take this class again in the future. It is a lot of content in a short amount of time, and I am wondering what I would pick up on if I had the chance to take the course again. Rhonda did a great job explaining the job analysis for Federal hiring work.

Easy to follow and informative instructor. Learned different aspects of job analysis not currently being utilized for our program.

Very good overall. Well organized and easy to follow. The instructor was excellent. Made the class both informative and fun.

Rhonda was wonderful. It is obvious she has a lot of experience in HR, and that is really appreciated. In some trainings, I have had instructors who are there just to read the slides and not offer content. Rhonda offered content. I would take another course with her again. The content was relevant and helpful. My office has been tasked with additional things we do not have training on, such as Job Analysis. The Participant Guide was really nice and will be super helpful when working.

Great instructor. Very knowledgeable and was able to tie everything together. It was a good class! Enjoyed all of the foundation it helped build.

Very good experience, overall. Victoria was great and very knowledgeable!

Amazing instructor, kept the attendees' attention and ensured we were all up to date on what was being passed in the class. Thank you for the pace of the course, the materials, and the experience. Greatly appreciate that I was able to attend.

My overall experience was wonderful. I surprised myself with the amount of engagement I relayed. Usually, I am shy with verbal communication, but this class made it easy to be relaxed and open with communication. Candace Samuels was a wonderful instructor. She is people-oriented and motivated the class to engage in all sessions. She shared her exemplary knowledge of quals and other human resources experiences.

If you want to understand Qualification Analysis, take this course. It is all-encompassing and allows you to understand how critical it is to get the right information in order to ensure that all applicants are given a fair opportunity. The instructor was very knowledgeable; she made the complex processes a little easier.

The instructor was superb!!! Rhonda took the time to thoroughly explain each subject, ensuring participants had a clear understanding of the material. She incorporated real-world examples and followed up with questions to reinforce learning. Her knowledge and expertise were integral to the training delivery and made a significant difference in the overall experience. This was an excellent class.

Wonderful instructor. She provided great examples.

Great class. I had a great experience. Rhonda was engaging, knowledgeable, and a fun instructor. I enjoyed learning Pay Setting: General Schedule with Rhonda.

Rhonda Coachman-Steward was our instructor for this class, and she is excellent! She related the subject matter to real-life examples so we could better understand the material. I highly recommend this course.

As a first-time Civilian HR Specialist, this course was amazing. It captured numerous basic Civilian HR programs that could/will be applied to everyday scenarios. Deirdre Pearson was a great teacher and extremely knowledgeable!

Highly recommend the instructor. She was very knowledgeable about the topic, was engaging with the participants, and it was a pleasure to be in her course. I was familiar with many topics, but really appreciated the refresh of information as well as all of the recent policy changes.

I loved this class and the instructor. She gave us plenty of time to ask questions and engage with the material in the guidebook. The small class size and breakout room sessions gave us the opportunity to exchange best practices and contact information to build community and knowledge. This class is great for anyone in HR or EEO.

Ms. Tammy did a great job instructing/teaching the Federal Staffing and Placement course. Her expertise made complex topics easy to understand. Her knowledge and teaching style set a high standard! Overall, I've gained new knowledge. The content was relevant and comprehensive, and I enjoyed taking this course.
