I thought it was really down to earth talking to Albert about the learner’s program. He brought back some very good memories. A lot of thoughts were going through my head that day when I talked to him. He explained the foundation, and how to go through the thinking process, of the entire program. For me, this program is a great start. It will allow me to think on my own, and use the talents that I have to build my future.
