It would take too long per page even after the audio stops or you've read the page sometimes you still have to wait minutes before going to the next page.

Hi Lucas, thank you for the review! We wanted to clarify that the timing you experienced is due to mandatory time requirements that we must adhere to in order to offer this course. The timers are in place to ensure that students complete the full 6 hours of content, as required by the state. We appreciate your patience and understanding with that!

I have the opportunity to take the course in Spanish also the information provided is useful; however the presentations could be improved by making them more concise and easier to follow

I was only about an hour into the course when it got stuck. It told me I completed the section, but no matter what I tried, it wouldn't progress me to the next section. Customer Service was no help. They couldn't bump it or whatever to force it to continue, so I requested a refund. They didn't refund me the whole amount. I found another site and was able to successfully complete the course without having to take those tricky questions you need to answer correctly or pay extra to retake it.
