Pennsylvania Wing policy for online SLS and CLC:
We're not hardballing here... we want to ensure you get the best, quality training experience, especially for our newest members in the very important "Basic Training" in the Squadron Leadership School course.
Here's our procedure for the online SLS class registrations... After you register for the online PD course, the online course director (from National) sends our Wing Commander the request, who then reviews it to approve or not.
The Online PD course version was created by National for the Chaplain Corps and members' whose work schedule precludes attending in person. The Wing CC only approves the online PD course for hardship cases: ie, when they work consistently on weekends, or cannot attend for religious commitments etc.
We highly, highly DIScourage the online SLS, in favor for live, in person, in-class SLS. the interaction between our members from different squadrons and groups makes the learning experience very effective, and at the beginning of a new members' experience, very important ... it's "Basic Training" that is diluted when you eliminate the human contact.
