Assorted Testimonials
Ahmed, your class worth every penny spent for the review class and more. You are so dedicated and concerned that each candidate pass the examination. I honestly attended the first class not knowing a single thing about seismic design and after several weeks I can proudly say that I understand the basic principles of seismic design of buildings.

Great class, well presented by a professional instructor. Ahmed provided me (25 years out of school, Civil Engineering P.E. licensed in a number of eastern states) with a thorough training in seismic analysis. I had to dedicate the time for the classes and the homework while managing a Civil Engineering office. This class gave me the knowledge required to pass. Thank you very much for your great class.

Dr. Ibrahim. I wanted to thank you deeply for your invaluable teachings and guidance. Your course was not only instrumental in learning the material, but it also completely changed the way in which I approach test taking in general. Before taking your class, I had no exposure to Seismic. Last week, I took the exam and I was notified today of successfully passing it. From the bottom of my heart I want to express my deepest gratitude and thank you for your excellent course!
