Curriculum Specialist – Chief Training Officer at Court Ordered Classroom.com
Brian <at> Court Ordered Classroom-dot-com
Brian has been a trainer/teacher in the corporate world for many years. He’s an expert at delivering information in a way that makes it “stick”. The state of Florida mandates the content of your traffic school session(s), a co-parenting class, anger management training or the content of a real estate license exam. Brian makes sure Court Ordered Classroom presents the content in a way that is informative, fun and memorable. The court may require you to attend these classes, but they did NOT “sentence” you too hours and hours of boredom. Let us help you successfully learn new ways to drive, respond to stress, relate to a soon to be “ex” or be confident of your knowledge, when taking industry exams. We are here to help, and make your required training as helpful as possible. Brian is also the “face” of our social media efforts, since he is the only one we could talk into doing it.
Lora H
Curriculum Advisor / Instructor at Court Ordered Classroom.com
Lora has a Bachelors in Social Work from USF and is working on a Masters Degree. She has first hand experience in dealing with children of divorce and homelessness. She instructs many of our Florida-required Co-parenting / Family Stabilization classes, commonly called the “divorce class”. Your attorney will tell you that each spouse is required to attend this class, before your divorce decree is final, but they often neglect to mention -WHY-. The Florida legislature recognized that divorce has an long-term social, economic, and emotional effect on children. The co-parenting class will NOT train you how to be a parent. [We hope you know that already !!] The “divorce class” teaches you how to communicate and coordinate the lives of your child(ren) going forward. Children are not “property” to be dropped off for the weekend, or messengers who should “Tell your Mom I said….” A divorce is never the out-come we plan on our wedding day, but the Family Stabilization class [and the family court required “parenting plan”] will help you learn how to minimize the negative effects on your kid(s).

Tim H
Board Member / XO at Court Ordered Classroom.com
Tim is a business start-up specialist and on the Board of Directors at the Court Ordered Classroom. He has a particular interest in driver safety. His last “driving classes” were at the FIA-Formula One race track in England and at LeMans, France, [pictured] where they drive around for 24 Hours, in daylight and dark, rain or shine, hot or cold, during a weekend each June. Being a safe and defensive driver on the roads in Florida actually requires some of the same skills taught to “pro-drivers”. Surviving “the race” to work and back home, takes awareness of other cars on the road, planning for the unexpected, controlling your “anger” and remembering that the “best” insurance, is not being involved in an incident in the first place. Court Ordered Classroom offers all the traffic-court mandated classes you need to fulfill any Florida traffic court requirement.
