"This is the real deal"
"I put in the time and utilized the information in the course and scored a 90% on my first attempt!! ... Guys, this is the real deal."

 "I passed each on the first attempt"
"I just wanted to thank Atlas API for the excellent training courses you provide. I have taken API 570, 580, and 510 with Atlas and passed each on the first attempt." 
-Ed Roane - West Point, VA
"Atlas API is the best online course that is available"
"Atlas API is the best online course that is available. I know because I spent thousands of dollars before I found Atlas API online. I would suggest to take their course first. You will pass if you use Atlas API. Customer service with Atlas API has been a great help and a great experience. Now that I am a CWI I plan to take more courses through Atlas. Thank you Atlas API."   
-Dennis Eaves - Lancaster, CA 
"Atlas API helped me set my own pace"
"Atlas API helped me set my own pace. Between being a new father of twin girls and having to deal with a major turnaround at my place of employment, the traditional 6 to 12-day classes that were offered would not work. I also live in California and you have to add to that a day or two of travel going to Texas and back. Mr. McLeod was kind enough to accommodate my situation by extending my access to the course."
-Patrick Cruz - Martinez, CA
