Trainers Commentaries:

IBTIHAL EL ZAKI - UAE: Accelerated learning is actually” The Essence of Learning” I invite you to learn like children.

SHAFE EL NIADY - UAE: I think that AL is like a vessel that contains information. The Trainer uses it to deliver information to trainees. The important part is how to communicate this information. The best method of deliver in my opinion is via Accelerated learning.

HABIB HASSAN EL SAYED - QATAR: It is a real revolution in learning and training. It needs full support and we need to start believing in its validity. We really need to reconsider our traditional approach to teaching and learning and to revitalize our methods to regain our position as leaders of the world.
