Dear Mark
The only issue you face in opening with Nando is that you may set the bar so high with his presence that you could have a hard time living up to the experience for the rest of your education year.
Here are the ratings from our chapter on Nando as a resource. We had him present to our chapter and it was the best speaker ever to speak to us.
