"Typically when I attend a short course, I'm lucky to leave with 40% of the material covered . . . this was not the case. Rob has a way of teaching that puts real scenarios in your mind; making it easy to remember. . . . I value learning from people--especially when I know it is their goal to help me understand, and not to just be heard. It makes it a whole lot easier to take three days away from home when your destination feels familiar . . . Keep up the good work!"

"I have more than 15 years of experience in moulding and woodworking business; the opportunity to interact with others within the class environment is very valuable. I was able to learn some shortcuts on old processes and feel the instruction on our new equipment was excellent. I will be training our other operators, and after attending this course I feel very comfortable in that capacity."

"Stiles Education met all my expectations for me and my staff. We came here to be taught the ins and outs of our Heesemann, and we were not disappointed."

"Stiles Education course MC080 was very beneficial. The instructor was knowledgeable of the material and equipment, and course content was easy to follow. They covered the material very well and used practical programming examples. We will have the ability to program in WoodWOP effectively and have the materials to reference to if needed. The training was a success and met my expectations."

"Once again I find myself in the position to tell you what a great job someone from Stiles did . . . A fellow by the name of Bill Smith just finished spending a week here setting up our new Building Blocks software. (My four people tell me that ) Bill knows the product inside and out, forward and backward. They said as a teacher he was easy to understand and picked up the pace and slowed it back down in perfect harmony with their understanding. He answered each and every question and did not avoid questions . . . He also left our people very confident that he was only a phone call away. That in itself instills a confidence that will allow them to really work the software.

From my personal interaction with Bill I will tell you Stiles could use a dozen more people like him. He is friendly, communicative and confident. He is also willing and eager to explain if he knows or go find the answer if he doesn't know. I am pretty sure if I had asked him to grab the trash in the kitchen his only comment would have been ‘where is the dumpster?". Bill has obviously been around the industry from a number of angles and is quick to offer his opinion from that wealth of experience. It was truly a pleasure having him here.

Bill Smith is welcome in my facility anytime. In fact I asked him when he would be back and his response "the moment you need me". I am officially adding Bill to my list of things I like about Stiles Machinery."

"We have been most satisfied with the overall service from your company. Everyone we have dealt with has been most professional and helpful. (Your installer's) extensive knowledge and proficient manner were most impressive and a pleasure. Purchasing an Altendorf (sliding table saw) was an excellent business decision. Our productivity has increased and we have found a company who stands up to the excellent reputation of the machine they sell."

"I must bring to your attention a very positive response (from your Parts Manager) to a problem we encountered last week. He responded in a very commendable manner, which did not result in downtime at our facility and handled the matter in a most responsible manner."

"In response to your customer survey, we would like you to know that (your Field Service Representative) . . . was a wonderful representative for your company. (He) made sure we were well prepared with the machine before he left. Our employees had a great time with him and little shop time was sacrificed. Production was ongoing. (He) is certainly one of the most caring representatives that I have dealt with."

(Letter - January 2000)

"(Your Field Service Representatives) . . . who happened to be working for another of your customers in the area and after completing a full day's work were kind enough and concerned enough to drive over to look at our machine. Though obviously very tired, they went right to work and stayed until the problem was solved and we were up and running. (Your Field Service Representatives) . . . are very professional and do a tremendous job for us. We always look forward to seeing them."
