I Enjoyed My Alcohol Awareness Class

I was impressed by how comprehensive the online 24 hour alcohol education course I took for my new job was. I was starting to work at a new law office and was encouraged by the prospect of working in a new place but was a little discouraged by all the requirements I had to go through before starting my job.

One of the requirements, was to take an online alcohol class. Initially, I wasn't happy about taking the class online, but since my job as paying for it and I could start immediately, I wanted to get through it quickly. 

I found an online alcohol class that looked reputable and signed up right away. What surprised me, was how much I enjoyed the class. I learned a lot about substance abuse, drinking behavior and patterns, problems associated with drinking and the shocking DUI statistics. As a lawyer, these things were fascinating. The class was well written and incorporated videos as well. I also learned how much I "prejudge" situations and have decided to be more open and neutral.

I Can Take My Courses Online

I plan to take an alcohol awareness class in order to fulfill it for my employment purposes. I figured that I would do the courses online because that is really the most convenient and cost effective way to satisfy this requirement.

I understand that the sooner I complete it, the sooner I can regain my position at my job, so there is no reason for me to delay. I am very happy that I won't have to drive to a class that could take several weeks.  The online course will also send a certificate of completion immediately upon finishing so I can return to work as quickly as possible.

While my immediate need is to get back to work, I've also decided to take this course as the next step towards a better life. I've been going down an unhealthy path that in all honesty, does not feel good. The online class feels like a good place to start.
