  I hope this discussion of RPT vs. Associate doesn't start another round of "lets be 'certified'".  We've already started getting some traction with the RPT lets not blow all that off for yet another title.

  CTT  Certified Tuner/Technician (Yes, I like the old name better because "Registered", as a term, really just means you are on someone's list. CTT would be comparable to RPT and would CERTIFY that the Association considers the person qualified in all respects to perform tuning, repairs, voicing, and so forth, at a proven, professional level of competence.)

     

     

    I couldn't agree more.   Heck, my dog is 'registered'  with the village and wears his tags to prove it!  And, whereas, he is much better than other dogs, this in itself only proves that I laid down $5 for his tags.

     

    The phrase "Registered Piano Technician" means nothing to the general public.
