My big accomplishments for December - creating several new on-line training classes for my company. Top 10 Activated Sludge Process Control Questions Answered, Water Sources Part 2 (groundwater and wells), Laboratory Testing: pH, Alkalinity, and Hardness, Laboratory Testing: Chlorine Residual by DPD, and Jar Testing. Plus, revamped both of the regulatory courses for the State. All told, 12 hours of new and updated content.

We've added a training unit calculator to our course approvals spreadsheet. This makes it easy to find courses that give you the training units you need to renew your certificates.

We're trying something new -- open access to most of our on-line training classes at zero cost. No certificates issued, but good for studying. If you're interested, you can ask for 30-days of access by filling out this form: https://www.indigowatergroup.com/study-only-registration/ You won't be added to a spam list. The signup only exists so we know who's taking classes. If your 30-day access expires, you can request an extension by completing the form again.

On-line training courses are a convenient way to earn TUs and CEUs, but are often held to a higher standard than classroom style courses. To receive approval for on-line courses, different states may require learning objectives, course outlines, course handouts, minutes spent per learning objective, and pre- and post- testing. The same states rarely require the equivalent for classroom style courses. They worry about fraud since there isn't an in-person sign-in sheet.

Ohio recently added some new requirements to the list: every course must include progress quizzes and all of those quizzes must be passed with a minimum score of 70% or higher and active course time tracking. Why the new requirements? It seems a few operators tried to game the on-line training course system. They completed multiple courses with different providers at the same time. The state system caught the discrepancy.

The result? All on-line course providers must build in minute-by-minute time tracking and develop courses with progress quizzes that force attendees to repeat portions of courses when they don't attain the minimum passing scores. Oy! That's been a ton of work for folks like us, ROYCEU, 360 Water, and others. It's even more work to maintain multiple versions of courses. So goes Ohio, so goes the rest of the nation. If you're noticing new requirements from your on-line course providers, this is why.

It does make me wonder why the engineering firm I worked for years ago felt the need to implement a dress code one day. The dress code included prohibitions against cut-off shorts, flip flops, and tube tops. There's always that one person.
