The best thing you can do is get educated about training. Understand how learning theory works and get a good handle on dog behavior and perception.
I have a few book suggestions, but read as much as you can. The more you know, the less you'll worry about what other people are telling you because you will be making an informed decision.
I'm sorry if any of these are redundant, it sounds like you already have a basic working knowledge
