Excellent point ED!
The only thing is the Nose work class I went to didn't cover markers at all thus your "THE POWER OF TRAINING DOG'S WITH MARKERS is a great first choice.
I asked the gal why she didn't use markers and she said it was too hard to mark the exact moment you wanted the dog to respond to.
She was running the class so I kept my mouth shut.
Does the Ramsey K9 Nose Work video use markers?
I wondered about that when one of their certified trainers told our class they don't.
VERY interesting since I marker trained my older dog Thunder to all of his titles including the cad/HR work.
No marking at source in the Andrew Ramsey videos. The only people I know of doing that are some medical alert trainers and Mike. I highly recommend the Ramsey videos though. I think you would be fine using them instead of going to a class. From what I have heard the classes are very slow paced. YMMV
Thank you David, as most of the American population is I'm a instant gratification kinda guy - if I can see improvement on a day to day basis - I'm happy but a weekly class I don't think would be much enjoyment for me - for Axle, maybe but not for me.

IMHO, it depends on the class and trainer. I know that if I'm training the right dog, you will be doing room searches in a couple of days, and moving on to more complicated stuff within a week. It really depends on the program.
Utilizing the videos will allow you to move at your own pace, or rather, the pace of the dog, instead of the pace of the class.
