My union school offers it as a 5 day course (should only be 3 ) for free so I’m taking it there. If they didn’t I would have done what you’re doing and done it online through NEMO and went and did the practical in mass. Let me know how it is. All these schools gear you to pass. You always get a big spiel about how advanced and complicated this school is versus that school. At the end of the day we are all just customers to them.
Taking the theory online was convenient. Took the practical at Houma location and it was well done. Scheduling was challenging due to my rotation, but it finally worked out.
