If you're new, read the synopsis.
Good news: I've freed up quite a bit of time for myself, and over the next week or so, I should be putting together and (hopefully) publishing my website. I'll be hosting it personally for a while, but eventually, I'm hoping to move hosting to a dedicated line, possibly even an independent service provider.
That's good so that my customers will have a regular way to get in touch with me and a standard place to go to get updates all about me. I have a few more technical hurdles yet to overcome, but I'll get there.
Also in the good news category: the Ombudsman has completed their investigation, however the outcome does not bode well for me overall. I don't want to go into too much detail without documentation in front of me (which is in the mail right now), however, the overall summary of the Ombudsman's findings is essentially a summary of what happened here, complete with the excuses from the college, and the statement that the Ombudsman's office will be taking no further actions.
While I'm a little confused as to where to turn next, I think my next focus will be on certifications, not necessarily this.
Either way, I need to eventually move on with my own life, and while I have some decisions to make as to whether I want to pursue this further or not, I have to spend some time focusing on things that I NEED in order to be properly employable... Like my A+ certification... I've considered the A+ an almost give-away cert for a while, and really, all I need to do is write the test and I'll get the cert... I'm looking into how to do that now.
I'll update again when official word comes down, in writing from the ombudsman. At least they don't say "We'll inform you in writing within 5 days" and not get back to me for the better part of a month. They actually have not made any promises in terms of time line, and they've always come through with a result eventually.
Anyways, be well everyone.
