Grand Lodge Education Program:

The Grand Lodge website now has three courses available online to take. You have to take it online. You can now print it out and work at your leisure and send it in as before. Make sure you have the NEWEST UPDATES FOR THE CODE before you take this course. There are twenty questions. (Multiple choice  and true and false). When you are done it grades it automatically. It tells you which questions you got right and wrong but does not give the correct answer for the wrong ones. This is an excellent tool for the Lodge Officers to use. The point is not knowing so much the answer to every question but rather knowing where to locate the answer in the code book. More courses are being developed at this time. So give this a try.
