WOW, you got a whole weeks notice! Hope you can make it last minute!

Maybe you did win the lottery! Perhaps that explains why some get notices, and others (that have been trying longer) don't. Maybe DPS has a BIG bingo bin filled the instructor's numbers, and they draw a number or two a day to notify.

I really wonder what will happen on Dec. 31, when they find there are HUNDREDS of instructors that have fallen in the cracks.

Further instructions for/about the proficiency? Do we need to wait until after class to shoot? What's different about qualifying fellow instructors? Other than 90% vs. 70%.

NSA and SA

And the rules were?...

Hahaha, a week????? I've been waiting for a response way longer than that.

I figure nobody will be teaching next year.

I requested a class that is in ten days. I have no idea if I am in, where it is, what time, etc.

There will be the 50% that don't expire this year still teaching. The DPS MIGHT have it figured out by the end of 2014.

The only certificates that DON'T expire at the end of this year, are those new instructors that received them earlier this year. Everybody else's expires 12/31/2013. No where near 50%. Maybe a couple of hundred.

A couple of weeks ago I s-mailed ALL the documentation to them (after submitting it electronically TWICE), return receipt requested. A couple of days ago, my status changed from " waiting for required documents", to a status indicating that the investigation is in process and they are awaiting completion of the renewal training requirements. SUCCESS!

I never even received THAT one...
