This course will save you 208 hours a year. The value of 208 hours depends on the hourly wage or rate being considered. To get a sense of what it might translate to in monetary terms:
Minimum Wage (e.g., $15/hour)
208 hours * $15/hour = $3,120
Moderate Rate (e.g., $25/hour)
208 hours * $25/hour = $5,200
Higher Rate (e.g., $50/hour)
208 hours * $50/hour = $10,400
Specialized Professional Rate (e.g., $100/hour)
208 hours * $100/hour = $20,800
Multiply 20,800 by 50 years of your life and that alone exceeds $1 million.
Think of how many more lives a dispatcher can save with more skill.
As you start to feel that readiness to boost productivity, just dive right in and enroll.
