Poppa,

It is one of the best investments you'll ever make. Not only from the aspect of what you learn, but for the people you meet. Price-wise I dare you to try to find a better deal, anywhere. I've been three times and just wish that time permitted me to continue to go. Do it!

I enjoyed it a great deal and learned a lot the first time; not so much the second time. When I did it I didn't think the practical at Level I had much to do with actual coaching; also the written test was pretty useless--badly written and having little to do with actual coaching.
