We have been working to get our company 100% compliant and CEA has been invaluable in helping us to find all the issues in our company as well as supplying all the resources we needed to fix those issues. They have been informative, helpful, and easy to work with for all our HR needs.

I love working with CEA! It astonishes me that I can call, quickly speak to someone, and get expert advice. Craig just talked through my question and then drafted our potential new policy in detail, down to draft decision making guidelines. You all amaze me.

I love and find it extremely helpful how every time I have emailed [them], I have received a call immediately and get great information regarding my question.

Judith Robles

We just finished up the LEAD classes and found them to be very helpful and full of information. Each one of the participants from CEA were AWESOME! They were friendly, knowledgeable, and fostered an engaging, fun and safe environment. They truly complimented one another and worked well together. The curriculum and offered resources were useful and informative. We’ve already put many into play in our office and, Clare has definitely expanded our library with all of the suggested books.

Michael Valdes

I am grateful beyond words for the ongoing and prompt support of Dennis. What a rare jewel he has turned out to be. It is a priceless service and one heck of a bargain.

Cheri Carroll

We have been a member of CEA since January 1990. They have been an excellent and valuable resource and support to our company. We updated our handbook for 2018 and it was an easy process completing this project. Their newsletters, email updates, member website, and easy access to CEA are highly recommended.

I truly appreciated the webinar, very insightful. And I love being a member of CEA.

Melissa Briggs

CEA completes our handbook each and every year, updating me and the handbook as to changes from an HR perspective. To date there have been no problems with our handbook, and it has been extremely useful in setting the stage for good employee relations and expectations.

I really enjoyed your seminar. When I told a colleague that I went to a training seminar on "Wage & Hour Facts," the response was, "Wow! That sounds boring." I told her that it wasn't at all and sung your praises as an interactive, informative, and entertaining speaker. Great job!
