Thom, You rock dude! Thanks for all of your support as we have started up. Right now, we are in recruiting mode and need to fill seats for the next school year. We already have five new students registered for August and we have 15 more seats available. Contractors in Philadelphia and New Jersey have stepped up to sponsor a student. I am presenting to the SFPE in Wisconsin and Illinois this year. We are also going to present to sprinkler contractors in San Francisco in July. We will have a booth at the NFPA exibition in Las Vegas and I plan to speak there as well. Busy times indeed! I hope to save contractors a fortune in training costs for new designers. I eventually hope that we can be THE source for designers to our entire industry!! If you are interested in having an "Academy Campus" in your part of the country, please let me know. We are in the process of leveraging technology to bring this first-ever college degree to many regions of the US. Thom, we are fortunate to have you in our industry man. Kepp up the high quality work that you are so well known for! See ya'!
