[CAUT] CAUT Certification:...

[Ed Sutton]

My chapter is having a difficult time reaching clarity about this proposal.

What if there were various classes and exams, as mentioned, but no 
"endorsement?"
One could say "I'm an RPT, and I've passed exams on Inventory Management, 
Concert Preparation, and so on."
One might design one's own curriculum, including , some day, exams on 
rescaling, action geometry, etc.

Would there be value in a system of classes and exams like this?
