CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

"Our office recently engaged JRA to provide in-house training for our staff and some colleagues from another practice. We were impressed by the carefully tailored nature of the workshop sessions and also by Jonathan's willingness to accommodate the varied skill levels of our team. I personally found Jonathan’s teaching method helpful in making the transition to Vectorworks from other CAD packages, and those who have worked with VW for sometime came away with helpful tricks to speed up the drawing process.

We found Jonathan to be knowledgeable and personable, and certainly a clear communicator with exceptional teaching skills. The tutorials were very clear and easily understood by all, and well-targeted to suit the specific needs of our practice. It was also helpful that the training was provided on-site using live projects for demonstrations and discussion.

Jonathan’s assistance with developing office standards and procedure guides has also proved invaluable in increasing office productivity through more efficient use of the software. We look forward to using Jonathan's training services again to further develop the skills of our team."
