Supe,
I'm glad you got a lot from this course and would like to hear more about it.
I debated posting this as I don't want to start anything, but I have heard REALLY bad things about onPoint. I have NO first hand experience with them, but when considering taking a class with them a year or so ago, my training buddy and I heard a couple of horror stories from those who had attended (or in one case tried to attend [they showed up the instructor was completely unprepared]) onPoint classes. It's possible these were aberrations and/ or the folks there have since gotten their act together, but I know that I would be hesitant to take a course with them.
Your experience was clearly different and I would like to hear what impressed you about the class you took, what the was covered, how the class was structured, etc.
