What employers are saying about the search engine marketing training:

Search Engine Academy of Oregon is doing a fantastic job training web designers and developers in SEO best practices. I own a small Search Marketing Agency and my most difficult task is finding designers and developers with the skills to implement the best practices and strategies I learn at search engine conferences.

SEA-OREGON is training developers advanced search engine optimization and marketing skills and techniques that help me create quality projects for my clients. One of Colleen's students recently completed a project for us and it was one of the best experiences I've had with a developer in 10 years of business. Jennifer was skilled, professional and well versed in SEO/SEM. Whether you run your SEO/SEM project in-house or hire an agency, insist on this quality training. Thank you Colleen!

"I attended Colleen's SEO training company Search Engine Academy of Oregon and felt it was worth every penny! As I was already working as a SEO professional I was very interested in keeping up to date with the happenings in the SEO world. I took the advanced 5 day course. It was not only informative but fun. I particularly enjoyed the fact that there was time to explore areas of SEO that were not particularly in the curriculum. And it was fun!"
