I have to agree with Zachtam, am looking for some online support...



I ordered the CPS study guides/software two months ago and I am overwhelmed.  I was never good at studying in high school (barely made it out alive) and only survived one semester in college so I don't have any good study habits to fall back on (but I am really intrigued with the whole CPS thing-continuing education).  My boss has been on me for years to continue my education.  So I don't know where to begin studying.  



I looked to my local IAAP chapter and have to say I am not interested in dealing with them at all.  They barely spoke to me at the "open membership meeting" I attended.  I felt like a complete outsider.  Most of these women work for the same company/been there so long all of the discussions kept turning to personal issues (kids, home, husband), etc.



I also looked to the other AA at work to see if anyone was interested in forming a study group.  You would have thought I was speaking in tongues.  Not one response from 20 - they also don't want to be bothered with any quarterly meetings, joining IAAP, etc.  Its very discouraging.
