    What has Ray done for you recently?    

                        

 

Here I am ... caught off-guard, with my desk and work area a mess. 
That's my wife, Kathy, on the other end of the phone.

Tom, my favorite computer genius, was playing with a new camera.

Imagine my surprise upon seeing he'd downloaded my picture onto this page. 

Here's what I've been doing recently:  what courses I've created or updated, what to expect from me in the near future, and any other important news you need to know about The Burnham System.  

Dear Patrons,

Here's what I've done for you recently: 
 

Most recently I completed the NEW CPCU 312 and 500.


I finally completed and published (after more than 30 years of work)

Burnham's Insurance Dictionary

Think of your most complete insurance dictionary, the one you have now, times four. 
Burnham's Insurance Dictionary has over 34,000 definitions, over 900 pages.

You owe it to your long-term career success to click here for further information.

It is impossible to think without using words. 

Knowing the precise definitions of a great number of words marks the educated man and is the best single indicator of success in any field. 

Only one thing is a better predictor of long-term financial success than knowing the precise meanings of more words (having better and more tools with which to think): 

knowing the precise meanings of more words in your chosen field. 

And, for you that means, if not learning all those words, at least owning your own copy of Burnham's Insurance Dictionary and keeping it within easy reach.

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

Because HS 300, 311, 322, 340, and 351 are being revised as of October 1, 2011, and because it takes me time to get The Burnham System revised, I recommend you take some other HS course in the fourth quarter of 2011.

As of April 14, 2011 all of The American College courses below were up-to-date.

HS 300 through date unknown, updated after 09/09.

HS 311 through date unknown, updated after 03/09.

HS 313 through date unknown, updated after 03/10.

HS 321 through date unknown, updated after 12/09.

HS 352 through date unknown, updated after 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 rewrote my CIC materials and decided to drop the CIC AM course.

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
