I've seen plenty of people stagnate and not do the things it takes to get better.

You keep focusing on the 18 hours as if everyone learns the same way or picks up on the information equally. Unfortunately that is not always true and if that time in training becomes redundant or tiresome for many, than you have officials that are not picking up on everything. And if I am not mistaken, your area is not working 3 Person across the board for all games. If that is the case (and I could be wrong) then what are officials really getting out of the training when so much of officiating is understanding and practicing a system that helps officials get to the next level.
