Here's a breakdown of what you would credit under the current training system vs the distance learning LOA. Assuming in both cases the training is scheduled on days off.

Current

3 days ground - 12 hrs
DHD (to/from training @ 50% DHD) - 6 hrs

2 days sim - 8 hrs
DHD (to/from training @ 50% DHD) - estimated 6 hrs

Total = 32 hrs credit

Proposed LOA

2 days distance learning - 10 hrs

1 day recurrent ground - 4 hrs
2 days sim - 8 hrs
DHD (to/from training @ 50% DHD) - estimated 6 hrs

Total = 28 hrs credit

In both of these scenarios, we are assuming that all of the training would be scheduled on days off. However, in the case that training is scheduled over a trip, it is possible (and in fact more likely) that you will credit more under the new LOA as the 10 hrs for distance learning always goes above your line value. In the case that recurrent was scheduled over a trip, you would only be guaranteed the greater of the trip or training event. My captain and I were doing the math and figured out that he would have actually credited more hours under the new LOA for his training event this month than he did under the current system.

If you take the DHDs out of the equation (applicable to FLL and now LAS crews) you actually credit more under the new distance learning agreement.
