Great training! Janet and I attended in August and will be serving as volunteer hospitaleros in December. We are both really thankful for the training and super excited to be able to give back and say thank you.

The training is great! Janet and I learned a lot. We took the manual the provided with us to Zamora last month and yes we used it. Great traing and fabulous instructors.
