NUCULA: Nuke It Or At Least Fix It!



All of us officials have gone through the nightmare of working with NUCULA and maybe its time for us to demand that they either fix the thing or get rid of it...

We have all known new officials who have had to wait days and weeks after taking their tests before they had an account...

After taking the tests, they want us to "ASK" them to recertify us.  Why in the world would we be taking the tests if we didn't want to be recertified?

Even though we take the tests and they have us in some database that sends us our scores, they still ask us to go in and enter what school and the scores.  The only problem is that there is no place to enter your score.

They want us to fill out a complete work record but they only count the first few chairs you do and don't count ITA work for much of anything...

Pray that the nuke comes sooner than later...  I'm sure they could go to Plano High School and find a teenager that could fix the thing in a few minutes so why not get it done right now?

It is my understanding, from a reasonably reliable source, it is being nuked and a new, better, easier, more relevant program will take its place soon?!

AMEN!

That is for the PROFESSIONAL line and chair officials not me - the grass-root Officials that sweats his butt off in the pretty colorful clown suit they make us wear!

GO BACK TO SIMPLE. STOP making new TECH jobs. Give the money they spend on this crappy data base back to the sections!

How about letting the sections worry about the certification and retention process. Texas could do MUCH BETTER without USTA/New York legal hoops to jump through.
