I finished all the lesson CDs for Unit 1 on Sunday and found Units 2 and 3 waiting at my doorstep when I got home from work Monday. How's that for timing? I took the comprehensive on-line test for Unit 1 and got my grade a second after clicking Submit. (I got an A+. I missed one question so I think it should be an A, but the results said 97% was an A+.)
I'm still not finished with Unit 1 as I have a "Live Action Training" DVD to watch that reportedly shows professionals demonstrating the topics discussed in the lessons, and there are 2 more CDs. One is a "NYIP Insider's Guide" titled How to Enter and Win Contests and the other is a "NYIP Business Series" for Freelance Opportunities which is accompanied by a 66-page booklet with the same name.
Then I have to submit 3 photo projects, but that may have to wait till spring as we are having a colder and snowier than usual winter and I'm a bit of a wuse.
It took about 12 hours to finish the lessons for Unit 1, but that doesn't count the research I did "outside class". The research was valuable and interesting, but probably not actually necessary as it appears topics are introduced gradually with subsequent lessons going into more detail.
01/29/11: I finished the video and the last 2 CDs. That brings the total time to 14 - 15 hours, but it took me a month to do those 15 hours.
