<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>I posted a comment on this topic before the holidays. Response –
nil. The topic of safety in technology areas appears to be too political for people
to discuss or this is not the forum to express opinions.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";

there really someone out there willing to take responsibility for the mess we are
now in?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

were making recommendations like this back in 2003.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>I realize that anger will not help but I feel very powerless to
do anything about the situation and I feel that a response to the 4.4.5.2.1 would
not change my situation.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>I am doing everything that I can to meet the requirements of the
verification process through Noel Arnold and Assoc and this has greatly
increased my workload. Yet still at the end of the year I will have to go cap
in hand to the principal and ask for funding for next year. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>We are being asked to take on more responsibility but I am not
convinced that the support that is provided is adequate. I have completed
VBQU619 but the cost of all our Technology staff doing this training is too
great.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>Finally I find it ironic that the last 10 to 15 years has been
spent developing curriculum for design education and now we are being asked to
redo the curriculum and include more safety training. What have we been doing
for all those years? <o:p></o:p></span></p>
