Tips and Trick – Time Management. This video course is approximately 8 hours long (8 PDH). You can pause the video at any time, but we recommend pausing after completing a lecture or section. Lectures typically last about 1 hour, including video lessons and class activities. Lecture slides are usually 1 minute long. If a slide narration is shorter than a minute, the slide will remain for a full minute to give you enough time to read the content. You can pause the video if you need more time to fully understand the material..

Tips and Tricks – When Web Links Don’t Work. Some slides have Web links Websites sometimes change or links may become obsolete over time. If a link doesn’t work, use the keywords provided on the slide to search the internet. Example: If gps.gov is unavailable, search: “US government GPS website” or “gps.gov current URL” You can also search by topic, e.g.:“GPS survey applications site:gps.gov” This approach ensures you always find the most up-to-date information..
