“One of, if not the best, courses of instruction I have received in my 21-year career. Provides the best analysis and planning models for human factors I’ve observed. Fills a void in current tools and techniques for adversary planning. I will use this in every element of leading my operational teams.”

“I think I am leaving the course with a completely different mindset. On how situations and decisions are planned out and more efficient ways of communicating my ideas and plans. Most definitely the best put together class that I have been to, every day was planned and taught very well. Your (Artifice’s) way of communicating your thought process presented with stats and facts was very helpful.”
