Here it is for you... Unfortunately, it looks like for the training that starts tomorrow, the registration closed Friday >:(. But hopefully this is the info that you need.  Make sure you're opening it in Internet Explorer and not Crome, firefox or molzilla or whatever it is. It doesn't work in the others. And there is a number that your teacher can call to get everything taken care of for you instead of online registration and payment.  02-3429-5487. Or you can call them at 02-3429-5686 on the foreigner friendly line.  They're pretty helpful there.  Just sounds like your co-teacher is a little, um, behind the learning curve.

I was supposed to have completed my GEPIK online training course in early December, immediately following the GEPIK orientation camp I attented late last November.

I registered for the online course, but according to my head coteacher the school didn't do their part, meaning they didn't pay/register me from their end or whatever, on time. She said simply that it was a "very complicated procedure" which bothered me a bit because obviously other schools in the province bear that same complicated procedure for their waygook charges.

She said the course was offered again in January but then failed to register me again. Kind of mutual forgetting, plus I was in the middle of a camp and didn't want to bother at that time.

Now I've got nearly 80 hours of deskwarming to go before next semester, and I've heard the online training officially takes 15 hours and unofficially only takes two or three.

Sorry I'm rambling here, but I asked the same head coteacher about it the other day, and she says she no longer has the number to do whatever it is the school needs to do (pay?) to confirm my registration. I'm 99.9% sure that I gave her the paper with the number on it, but as she's about as well-organized as an illegal cock fighting event I don't see her ever finding it even if I insist to her that she has it.

So I'm looking for two things here:

1) The phone number GEPIK schools are supposed to call to confirm the registration of their foreign teacher for this online course

and

2) A web link to where we register for the course. I already made an ID, but they never paid, but now I can't remember how to get back to the website, and I'm pretty sure the address is printed on the same piece of paper my head coteacher has.


I'd really like to be able to register for this online training pronto; I know it's only offered at certain times, but it'd be real nice and ideal if I were able to somehow fortuitously be able to register before the next course offering time and knock it off the list in these next two weeks while I have little else to do.

Did everyone go to this orientation because my school never sent me?

Also, an illegal cock fight is usually well organized. They are able to take and record everyone's bets despite everyone just holding money up and screaming.
