Sorry, this is off topic. Do you know what's up with the new IDP categories coming January? I receive my NCARB mag yesterday and am starting to wonder. I was a good little intern before getting laid off and my employer had lots of opportunities to spread the work tasks around. This was looking like a good thing as I think I can finish all of my Category A tasks now through EPC. Some with more work than others but It would give me flexibility in what other work settings to go for in this economy. I'm hoping to finish IDP sometime in my life! That said, it looks like some of the current IDP tasks have been split (cost/code analysis) and there are some new ones. NCARB says that you won't lose hours, but at the same time they are now more buckets to fill with minimums. Will the new work settings allow for some of these new minimums to be picked up? Are they going to expand EPC so that we can cover more ground? This is kind of a big deal in this economy where finding the right setting with the right hours is harder and harder to find. Thanks for covering this at some point.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
