Title: The next wave, outsourced Ham tickets?
Post by: k4kyv on June 27, 2008, 12:42:12 AM
How long before our volunteer amateur radio exams will be outsourced to India?  Then all the VEC's will have to do is to download the exams off the computer based on the outsourced question pool, and submit the completed exam papers back to India for grading.  Maybe the FeeCee could even outsource rulemaking and enforcement.

More likely that the whole thing will go to an "online" format.

Login, enter some information (like a credit card number), take the test, print out your license.
