Learners World trouble

After completing about 80% of the prerequisite course material a few nights ago, I was kicked off the website due to system maintenance. Frustrating, and now I am trying to complete it again and when I click on Learners World I get an "EKP cannot connect to the database" error. WTF? Anybody else experiencing this?

Oh yah, it's appalling. Fleet office issued a notice about it as a "work around" for Macs, I believe, for me belatedly. I just went to work earlier and used the company computers but they really do need to pull their craniums out of the sand on this - 21 st century guys.

The other thing about LW. It doesn't retain a part attempt any more. That's even more frustrating.

If a Mac is being obstructive, Its doing you a favor by stopping you doing something you shouldn't be doing anyway!

I love my Mac!

Good idea, Buster, but FOP doesn't care, the AOA takes years to send a rarely-effective email about anything, and many of us have RTPC prerequisite training to do that is already without credit...thanks to everyone volunteering to work for free on their own time on their own computers they bought themselves.
