Testimonials "The SIOR experience in Atlanta provided educational and professional insight into today's commercial market. There was a broad spectrum of topics covered by commercial specialists from a variety of fields. The expertise of the SIOR instructors and the camaraderie amongst the candidates truly made this a worthwhile endeavor." - Gerald McArthur, SIOR "Having just attended SIOR Courses 200 and 203 in Atlanta, March 16-20th, I can say the experience underscores the attributes of the Society that first attracted me to the designation. The quality of the professionals who devoted their time and experience to the courses was outstanding. The material was on-point and applicable to every day business, the camaraderie the group developed will certainly lead to some lasting relationships, and the management of the courses was first-rate.
