I dunno but it looks kind of intimidating. There's like 5 different quizzes we need to pass and readings

I had anticipated some of the questions people might have as soon as I read the email and asked Scott in advance. Scott only knows what he was told and has no way of verifying the accuracy of that information. This is new to everybody. Don't blame him if this is not entirely accurate.

However, as far a he knows we are getting paid for the actual time it takes us to complete the training. Supposedly there is a time stamp on each section that logs how long you spend on that part and we'll be paid accordingly. He's been told there is a timer on each part that controls when you can proceed. (Sounds very questionable to me but this is what Scott was told.)

Be that as it may, just getting hourly pay for having to work on a weekend does not seem adequate and the union should see about that. (Of course if you chose to do it on June 19, most of us get paid anyway so ....)

The DOE's bullshit never stops.

IMPORTANT NOTE!
The course must be competed on the SAME DAY you choose to start it. You cannot start one day and finish another day.

This has been retracted and amended to say IT IS ADVISED to complete in one day but not required!

I didn't see that, did someone start and not finish yesterday and had to start over?

metsjets

the email stated course has to be completed on one of those 5 dates.

Not sure but I know somebody started it and even if he finished it he might not get credit for it. Has to be done on one of the specified days.

My post above about finishing the same day is as per Scott.

This is contrary to the instructions.
