Hello! How is the academy?

Hello all. I just wanted to say that I just got here, and already this seems like a great site. Congratulations on your fine work.

A little question about the academy: how big is the daily workload for your course? It doesn't take months of _full-time_ study I hope? I might consider signing up and learn something useful and helpful on the side.

Welcome to GeekPolice!

Everything is organized into Practice Logs with 5 Levels. You'll work with a teacher on each one until they give you the clear to move on. All teachers are volunteers so they help in their free time. It can take months or a year or two to complete. I've been in this since April of last year.

Thanks Button, there's so much of a positive voluntaristic vibe about this program I'm positively vibrating.

I'll be moving house in less than a month, so I might take a look then and see how it goes.

hey, welcome

Actually Buttons, these type of questions should be left for teachers only.

Arashmickey, allow me to point you to a couple of informational pages that will help you understand what GeekPolice Academy is all about...
