Joyce,
Sorry for the delayed response. I wanted
to get my facts straight. You make an excellent point and we are asked this
question a lot. Anyone can re-take a course at the regular rate if they believe
it would benefit them. However, we do not offer a refresher course at a special
rate for two reasons:
First, CTDLC, our course
vendor/platform charges us the same software license fee for every enrollment,
new or old;
Second, our IT
infrastructure has no provision for an additional rate or course level. Jon
would have to create it. The system is very kluged up now between CTDLC and
our Web site so adding anything else is very difficult.
73,
Harold

Are there any plans for those who have
already taken and passed this or any level, for that matter, to refresh
ourselves and be aware of the new items that are introduced in the updated
versions? If there have been significant changes in Federal
Gov't programs and policies, as you have said, then perhaps these changes would
warrant a 'refresher' (just addressing the changes), so that a 'new'
graduate of a level is not 'on a different' page from those of us who have
completed the courses in prior years.
