Conclusion

You're now armed with all the GM theory you're going to need to get started as a GM, or improve upon your GMing skills. That doesn't mean there isn't anymore to learn. Even the most experienced GM is still learning. Like life, GMing always changes.

If you've paid attention to what was said in this course; if you thought about the advice the other GMs provided; you're building on a solid foundation. Enjoy the journey. Now go take the exam. The sooner you take it, the sooner you'll be GMing. Good luck!

As current Course Proctor I do not feel that I have written this new version of the course on my own. Instead I have drawn from previous versions, and therefore feel I share authorship with all the people who helped on previous courses as well as those who gave me advice as I wrote this version.

All listed here have helped in some way to write this course. Some made a huge impact like Deanne, others supplied only a quote or two but just as vital. This course will continue to change over the years but these names should go forward with it.
