Level 3 almost done
About to finish Level 3 and then the big push to get Level 4 incrementals done next week in time to leave for Ann Arbor, MI and NTI training. REMEMBER WORK SHOES, code book, calculator and writing sticks. It is likely going to be hot, bring water. Things are going reasonably well, I haven't crunched the numbers but it looks like the level 3 and 4 results will be better than last year. Levels 1 and 2 are likely about par at first glance. Books are in so get your books and start reading, we have a lot of new curriculum and will be interested in your take on the new material.

Lessons Learned
Lessons learned from hands on testing:
ALL- time management is crucial. BUY A WATCH. I don't care about lame excuses about "I USE MY PHONE" you can't always use your phone. If you are constantly fiddling with your phone you are prone to be the first laid off.
First Year- you need to be smooth on bending. bend once. And sequence your work so you don't have to put things up on the wall three times.
Second year- there isn't any bending but you still have people running out of time because of sequencing. Mark it out, measure nipples, put in supports and mount the boxes once.
More to follow.
