My only request of the board is to consider a means of allowing unlimited credit for self-study. In my experience, self-study generally provides the professional with the most focused and least costly means of acquiring knowledge useful in addressing the engineering needs of one's particular field of practice and set of clients. "Sponsored" programs are occasionally helpful, but usually only to gain foundational training or knowledge of a new engineering solution, design tool or technique. Even in these instances, I generally get the best learning from self study.
