    I got my assessment results at the end of feb, PCA has been and gone and e learning has come through this morning. I wasn't part of the delay group, I scored 77%, so an A.

    I just have medical to do now as far as I am aware.

    Hope that helps.
    thankyou very much -- to be honest that has cleared up a lot to me!:D
    appreciate the clear explanation:)

    at least now I know it could be a very long wait, so will start breathing again!;)

  • Registered Users Posts: 104 ✭✭JayC90


    Been off work sick, completed the online learning yesterday afternoon. Quite interesting.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 428 ✭✭19087


    What level of knowledge of this information do you think will be required when you walk into gv? Considering it locks us out after 28 days and potentially it could be 6 weeks after that before we get in!

    I found the best thing was to print it out so even after 28 days I still have a copy. I also find it easier to learn that way.

    You get quizzed on it on your first day in GV. I thinks it's a pass or you're outta here kinda deal


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 61 ✭✭charlie_six


    As this is the first time they have had elearning before GV no one knows and I doubt they would put you out first day.


  • Registered Users Posts: 35 Chief Wiggum2


    A friend of mine is also through, his father is serving and called up to enquire. He was told/led to believe, that it was on the first day. Not worth taking the chance so I'll be cramming right up to then

    Just a question for the other online learning people...

    All my modeules as I am doing them are getting a little tick in the box beside them, but the knowledge check boxes are still empty even though I've got 100% in each check - is this the same for the rest of you?

    Nice to have you back!

    Emails were compromised and linked to this account. Had to kill off a lot of stuff quickly, taken me a week or so to get all my work back together and sign up for a rake of sites.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 428 ✭✭19087


    Has everyone been getting multiple emails today from the online learning? Seems they email out every post anyone makes in the 'forum'

    Yea i had a good few come through today aswell.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 64 ✭✭boblaw88


    They have updated a good bit of info.

    Just seen the note about a test in your first week at Gville. You need to a % score to progress.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 91 ✭✭tony1985


    The test is multiple choice, and they don't mention not progressing. Failure to pass results in verbal warning I believe. To be honest, a weekend of reading should take care of it, given that it's multiple choice.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 64 ✭✭boblaw88


    Schwing! Thanks Tony

    When you get the call they open up the initial course with a new course after induction weekend


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 64 ✭✭boblaw88


    Finished Huzzah! Found a lot of the stuff all linking in towards the end, going to print out all the pages and make some mind maps from it all.

    Closes next Friday, hope there's a wee phone call coming my way after!

    Well done, I got finished this week too. Going by the 5 week mark calls for next intake will hopefully be around [mod snip] may fingers crossed


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 64 ✭✭boblaw88


    Took an hour an night for a couple of weeks and made lots of notes. Once I got back into studying mode it was good craic. Just want the hard copy to be safe for this week 1 exam! [mod snip] May is lucky for me, so here's hoping!!

    I've seen a lot of talk on the online learning discussion forums (I'm guessing some of you may feature!) about what exactly needs doing for this to be officially completed.

    Can we safely assume that once the little 'completion' bar turns green and it says we have completed 51/51 required criteria that we have sucessfully completed the online learning? My grades aren't showing for the knowledge checks, but the admin says they are just a tool for us rather than graded.

    Maybe one of the first batch could enlighten us as they obviously did everything required!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 65 ✭✭coogie_boogie


    On my online learning it says 51/51 and the bar has turned green - grades only appeared for some knowledge checks but after reading some of the posts on the forum I have redone the knowledge checks which were ungraded and now all my grades have appeared. Just printing everything now so I have hard copies to refer back to so I can boost my knowledge.

    Yes that's everything completed once the bar is green and it states 51/51


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 428 ✭✭19087


    Anyone else in group 2a on the learning?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 64 ✭✭boblaw88


    Me! Finished a couple of nights away, went back through and printed a rake of stuff off.


  • Registered Users Posts: 48 Belfastm


    Finished group 2a on friday myself too. Loads of stuff printed, probably stuff I didn't need but you never know what might come up in the exam.

    Just checking... Anyone from the first batch that's waiting. When you try to log in you get an error with a suspended message? Obviously because it's closed? Just checking. Freaked me out a bit and couldn't remember if that's what I got when it closed off. Been that long!

    Has anyone received the online learning email today and not received the email with password and username?

    Plus did the email arrive 6 times, like it did for me?

    Yep arrived 6 times for me too lol!
    Still no username and password though. They did say 24 hours so not going to panic just yet.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 44 PTR292


    Yeh i guess so. Someone got a little over excited sending out emails today lol
    Cant wait to get the online learning started.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,696 ✭✭✭Mop a top


    I've done the online learning. Password should arrive tomorrow. Mine came the following day. Log on and change the password to something more memorable. You'll need to unblock pop ups for some of the videos and modules to work.


  • Registered Users Posts: 153 ✭✭sweet chuck


    I really enjoyed the online learning. Be warned guys, it will make you want the job even more haha.
