Although I probably didn't need this course as I've taken most everything FMS has to offer, I truly enjoy going back to the basics as I always seem to come out of reviewed material with some new pearl or idea I may have overlooked. Fantastic overview of the FMS mission and highly recommend this course to anyone who is interested in how one can start their FMS journey, no matter what their profession.
