A Place for Everyone

My experience at San Jac was awesome. Ed and the other instructors didn’t come in and just teach. They made me understand what they were teaching. The laid-back environment was just what I needed to prep. I left San Jac with confidence and tested the next week. I went 6 for 6, 3rd mate unlimited NC”
