    Action in action

    Another post from the archives. This one is interesting to look back on for me. I did indeed complete the 8-week course and earned multiple certifications, with, I am proud to say, the highest completion rate in the history of the program. I don’t recall off the top of my head, but it was between…

    School Update – 3 Days Left!

    Final exam… COMPLETE! So, I ended up being way, way ahead of schedule, and finished the pre-exam 5 minutes in, and the instructor set me up for the final. No, it’s not a diploma, not by any stretch, and there was no ceremony, but this program ran the gamut from very basic computer tasks, apps…
