Why is documentation so tedious

Every time I have to submit my continuing education hours, it feels like a mountain of paperwork. Why can’t there be a simplified process? It’s 2023; surely we can find a better way than digging through stacks of old certificates. Anyone else feel like this is just a huge time sink?

Yeah, it really does feel like a mountain of paperwork! I’ve started using a digital tool to keep track of my certificates as I go, and it’s saved me a ton of time during those submission periods. Maybe we could advocate for a more streamlined, online system? It’s 2023, after all.

Documentation is a pain! I use a digital binder now to keep my stuff organized. Have you tried that?
