joeseph h,

I continue to enjoy your posts, you put alot of time and thought into them, for that I thank you.

joe m,

interesting approach, I did look at your web site and agree with some of what you are saying about supervisors needing to be involved and taking the lead in training folks, that is 100% accurate.

As for the rest of it, about classrooms, instructors, videos and written tests being of no value, that would hard to prove with your extensive database or any other. I do agree that a video is not a total program or solution and that many classes and materials are not worth much, but to make a across the board statement like you do I can't agree with that. You may have alot of customers, but to be statistically significant in terms of impact to the US or the world that won't be the case. I see the word license mentioned on your site alot, do you think it is a good idea to be using that terminology with the current set of rules OSHA has in place? I usually correct customers when they use that term, its meaning has some fairly broad reaching consequences.
