Michael McGinnis is of the best instructors I've had yet through UCSD. Great feedback and encouragement were really appreciated. I think he has also mastered the use of online/distant learning technology better than most. Thank you!

Michael has wonderful experience and has so much knowledge to share with the class. i would have liked it if we could go maybe a week or two longer. The use of blackboard was great to compile the course information ahead of time. The onus was on the students to be prepared ahead of time.

Really good content overall. Excellent overview of the topic. Would recommend this course to someone who wants the complete picture of the onboarding process. The readings were manageable and tied back to the discussion board. I loved the content!

Really happy I waited for this class. The content was right on and very informative. His teaching style was excellent. Thought the professor provided a thorough overview of the onboarding philosophy. He was very knowledgeable on the topic. Thanks Mr. McGinnis!

Michael McGinnis is an excellent teacher! Fully engaged in what he is teaching. Always a pleasure to be in his class! -Travis

I was not in a typical transition, but was exploring active retirement after leaving my company. The coaching I received included potential paths for this phase of my life that I had not known existed. I'm grateful to have had the opportunity to work with my career coach, Michael McGinnis.

I enjoyed working with Michael McGinnis as my career coach. His guidance was very helpful to help me navigate through this rough patch in my life.

In the Midlands Tech/Bose Blythewood years that we worked together, I always knew there was something very special about you. I'm not talking about talent, exceptional expertise in your area, or your ability to put together excellent training. I see now what that was. It was your heart. That, my friend, is the best quality about you. You have lived a full life - excelling professionally and always caring more for others than for yourself. You have, and continue to, bless others.
