What Our Students Say About Us

I am a big advocate of your programs and have been taking your classes for 3-4 years. Your instructors really know their stuff, and yesterday’s instructor was no exception.

STUDENT

I liked being walked through the process step by step.

STUDENT

I have been working with Walmart for close to 25 years and have a lot of experience and knowledge as well; however, your instructor’s depth of knowledge is second to none. He knew every shred of information no matter how minute — as all of your instructors have.

STUDENT

I appreciated the honesty about the complexity of Walmart systems.

STUDENT

No matter the question, I never ever felt stupid or that it (my question) was irrelevant. The teacher would simply explain the why.

STUDENT

All of the 8th & Walton instructors I have worked with over the years exhibit this (empathy) in every facet of their instruction. Combined with patience, it provides a unique learning opportunity.

STUDENT

You get what you pay for, and your people and your organization totally deliver!

STUDENT

Inside tips for working with the buyers.

STUDENT

I very much enjoyed the fact that it was hands on and interactive. So many other training courses are designed for the people to sit and listen and stare at a screen. Actually participating and practicing building reports was truly valuable and a much better way to learn.

STUDENT

It's nice to have the small class sizes allowing for individual questions and specific feedback to our company. The instructors were great!

STUDENT

Class included easy discussion and allowed suppliers to get examples of experiences from other suppliers that have figured out a solution to a similar problem.

STUDENT

I appreciated that the teachers’ email addresses are always given out and students are encouraged to reach out if we have additional questions.

STUDENT

I am leaving with an arsenal of report builds and accessibility to learning how to operate with Walmart.

STUDENT

The three Retail Link® classes were excellent. I learned a lot of new reports, as well as things about Walmart in general. I have been with my company and on the Walmart account for about two months now, so I still have a lot to learn about the Walmart processes. These classes helped clarify what buyers find important and ways to stay on top of my Walmart business. I look forward to taking more 8th and Walton classes.

STUDENT

The instructors were knowledgeable about Retail Link® because they have had years of first-hand experience.

STUDENT

Lots of information, a very organized student guide, and a very nice class atmosphere.

STUDENT

The Retail Link® classes were so helpful! The two instructors were a perfect tag-team --with one delivering loads of knowledge in an easy-to-understand way and the other giving a lot of real-life examples to drive home the many uses of Retail Link®. I actually found myself smiling and laughing multiple times throughout the three-day class and came away from it with in-depth knowledge of my business. Furthermore, the insights I gained in how to run queries and analyses for my company will be instrumental in our success. Thank you for putting on such a class! I don't know where else I could learn so much from actual industry leaders!
