Yeah I am looking to get certified too...but I thought that we had to have 100 posts first. So according to what I just read we can do the online portion and the rest can come; like 100 posts? I am going to become a prem member as well. Is this where the "talkshoe" is being held?
that will serve you best and is the best way to prepare for the test.
Use the horizontal navigation, above, if you wish to become a premium member.
I'm new to the forum as well, but I'll attest the folks will make you feel welcome. Premium membership helps to support the resources we use, so that level of membership is encouraged here.
The drumbeat here is read, read, read. You'll benefit from that and it will help to prepare you for certification.
I missed your other question. I believe TalkShoe is postponed for now, due to the busy roof-cleaning season, events, vacations, etc. However, several recorded editions are available.
You can ask GaryW or Ted Saunders about availability and schedules.
