Well said, Sir! You are obviously a man of honesty, integrity and high standards.

I doubt very much that these days anyone with insufficient intelligence, would last more than a few days in any ops environment, large or small. To imply that anyone placed on this course by their employer, or who has subscribed to it individually, would be frightened off by it's depth or volume, would be pure and simple arrogance.
That said, I do hold a similar opinion to your own. Let us rid ourselves of this debacle, quit the bitching and get on with producing a qualification which is of a standard worthy of our profession.
Best regards.
