Just curious as to how it is working out for recent new-hires here. Thanks!

We were the first class to get it and I thought it was pretty good. Much better than sitting in a classroom for 8 hours a day watching powerpoint. I even refer back to it once in a while now in IOE. I heard the feedback from our oral evaluation examiners was that we did very well in comparison to the previous classes, so it must be working. It's also a lot nicer to do the learning of systems at home than sitting in STL in a hotel room.

Thanks for the feedback.

You got to do the work, about 4-6 hours a day for the in home section, otherwise you will struggle. Plenty of help available from classmates and instructors via SLACK. You just gotta ask.
