Have you been caught for shoplifting or stealing? If you are at the point in the process in which the court has handed out your sentence, it most likely includes a mandate to take a theft class. You have probably already had to miss work or school to meet with attorneys, attend hearings and maybe even spend some time in jail. The one thing you can do for yourself at this point to help alleviate some stress is to ask your court system if they will accept a distance learning theft class, or a theft class online.
Taking a class online is highly beneficial because you can take it at your own convenience any time of the day or night. So, you don’t have to miss any additional school or work to drive to a predetermined class time. You can get home from work, eat your dinner and in the comfort of your own home, you can sign into the class. Online classes are available nationally from any web-based computer, so you can even take them during your lunch hour at a coffee house, or the library.
It’s best to do your research first before asking the court if they will accept an online class. Choose a high quality course like the ones available from www.theftclassonline.com . This program is designed by theft education experts with the guidance of a Dr. Ari Novick, a licensed psychotherapist. His courses include all the most recent tips and techniques to help the client overcome the desire to steal. They are educational classes organized by chapter to teach the client everything from the impact of his behavior on society, to understanding impulse control disorders, to cognitive behavioral interventions. Why do people steal? What was the client’s motive for his thievery? How did his actions affect those around him? He has now learned the risks of stealing, how does he learn to break the cycle and the desire? Needless to say, the client will learn everything that he would learn in a traditional classroom and more.
Courses can be taken in lengths from 8 – 16 hours, depending on what the court has required. All the offender has to do is log on, register for a class and then scroll through. Classes can be logged-in and out of as many times as necessary to complete the class. The user can take it chapter by chapter, or for 20 minutes now and 1 hour later, etc. Classes are always available online, so the user can take it in the middle of the night, early in the morning and anytime that works for their schedule. At the end of the course a final exam is issued. The client needs to pass the final with a 70% score or better. It’s important to note that the final can be retaken as many times as necessary until passed. Once it has been successfully completed, a Certificate of Completion is sent out via US Mail. The client then presents this official document to the court and the theft class portion of their retribution is fulfilled. It’s a much easier process than having to meet a classroom schedule on designated days and during designated times. Taking a theft class online is one way to alleviate some of the stress that comes with being convicted of this crime.
