Testimonials

Kristian was AMAZING. I was concerned about coming into the class without prior knowledge, but he provided excellent contextual instruction and was genuinely interested in making sure everyone was on the same page.

This is the second time I have traveled to LA from the DC area to train at this facility. I feel that your courses are robust and have great instructors. Kristian was an amazing instructor. Great pace, real-life examples, passion, knowledge. Most important he made the course and content enjoyable. I was a little bummed the week was over. I wanted to do and learn more. Nonetheless, I have a good start on my Ai journey.

Kristian is a veritable Premier Pro God. There wasn't one question that he wasn't able to answer and I feel like I can competently work on editing film and video. He provided career advice and advised on realistic goals. I will definitely keep in contact with my instructor and refer others who are eager to learn to Training Connection.
