Success stories

Check what our student’s squad say about us

I've always believed that, if you change something for good, this goes like the butterfly effect. That is what exactly happened in my CRS diploma program. Martin is one of the greatest teachers I've ever seen in my life. He just didn't teach us how to be a better "Customer Representative", he also showed us; Why we always think, ask questions, look at situations from different perspectives, analyze and make the action about our lives. After "CRS" I was a changed man and I am thankful for Mr. Presse.
