"Cfal's Online Learning was a godsend, allowing one to learn the tool that the world uses to thrive and survive. I failed in my education process in life I failed in grabbing the tools needed to be a productive person in this society. I failed in the learning needed to be average or above average in the areas needed to be computer aware. But thanks to great people like the CFAL that cares only about the benefits of citizens to learn the tools needed to survive and be productive was i able to learn and progress towards success. Thank you so so so so so very much for the opportunity to learn this . You took the time with a middle aged man to learn something that every one else already knew or are learning now. Now I am in the game to win . Thank you so very much." - James W.
