Dear Patrons,

Time flies by!  Here's what I've done for you recently: 

I'm almost done updating courses for the 2008 exam year.

I've made good progress already.  I've probably finished the course you want.

I have already updated for 2008 the following AICPCU and IIA courses:

CPCU 510, 520, 530, 540, 551, 552, 553, 555, 556, 557, and 560. 

Intro 20, 30, 50, and 60.

INS 21, 22, and 23.

AIS 25.

API 28 and 29.

AIC 33, 34, 35, and 36.

AIM 40 and 44.

ARM 54, 55, and 56.

AU 65 and 66.

AAI 81, 82, and 83.

APA 91 and 92.

AIAF 111 and 112. 

AMIM 121 and 122.

AIT 131, 132, and 134.

ARe 143 and 144.

AFSB 151, 152, and 153.

ASLI 163 and 164.

IR (ARC) 201.

ARM-P (RMPE) 352.

That means I am done with the Institute revisions for 2008!


I have already updated the following HS (CLU, ChFC, CASL) courses:

Reminder:   It's a good idea not to take ANY course in the first quarter it is offered after a significant update. 

HS 300 through 09/09

HS 311 through 03/09.

HS 313 through 12/07, hence some revisions are needed.  HS 313 will be available by 3/31/08.

HS 321 through 06/09.

HS 322 through 03/08, but might be extended to 06/08.

HS 323 through 03/09.

HS 324 through 06/08.

HS 325 through 12/08.

HS 326 through 03/09.

HS 328 through 06/08.

HS 330 through 12/09.

HS 331 through 06/09.

HS 332 through 03/08.

HS 350 through 06/08.

HS 351 through 06/09.

HS 352 through 09/09.

Reminder:   It's a good idea not to take ANY course in the first quarter it is offered after a significant update. 

I plan to rewrite my CIC materials in the middle half of 2008.
But, rest assured, my current CIC materials will certainly help you prepare for your CIC Institutes and they carry my three guarantees:
     The best in the world by your opinion and
     A bargain at their $295 price and
     You'll pass or
     Your money back.

How I set my work schedule:

I check the number of backorders I have for any remaining courses and then estimate how long it will take me to do those with the most backorders.

I will then determine my work schedule according to how many patrons I can make happy per day of work.

That's the way I always do it.

That means that if you want help with a course, the best thing you can do is place your order today. 

You gain in three ways:

First, by ordering now, you move your course higher on my priority list.

Second, by ordering now, you'll get some of my material sooner as I can email it to you.

Third, by ordering now, if you end up getting all my work, but not fast enough for my standards (or yours), then you get it all at no charge. 
(I do not charge your credit card until I ship the last assignment.)

Remember, in most cases, the material I have for those courses would be adequate to score way over 90% on next year's exams ... I just haven't updated and reformatted the content to match the current numbering of the educational or learning objectives and review questions. 

That means, in most cases, by ordering now, you can start studying in minutes as we can email you some content instantly.

If you delay, you increase the chance of not ever getting around to getting my help.

And that means your chance of failing your exam will be far higher if you don't order now.

I wish you, my patrons, every success ... always,

Ray

PS

Last year and this year, I spent a lot of time working on my insurance dictionary. 
I expect to get it published in 2008 ... but it always seems to take second place. 
I am also, of necessity, learning more about Excel.
(Never make more than 65,536 entries!
Do not expect the same results when you follow the same sequence of commands!)
 

I've continued learning FrontPage so I can keep my website up-to-date.  In fact, I did this update entirely by myself ... from opening FrontPage to publishing it on the web. 
 

I was recently reminded of the level of pain involved with the death of an honored parent.  Dad was the greatest man I have ever known.   Mom was the greatest woman.  I am the luckiest person ... to have been adopted and raised by them.  My greatest inheritances:  a work ethic and a moral code.  Unfortunately, my Mom's sister (who lived with my wife and me) died too soon after Mom died.
