Sorry, but I must protest this paragraph. I earned my current LPI certificate at a time (after Sep 2004) when LPI said it WILL be current for 10 years and thereafter it will be considered inactive (as opposed to no longer active). That's what LPI told me when I passed it, and I *expect* LPI to honour that for the full 10 years. The market and changing conditions should be the sole factor to determine the current validity and appropriateness of the certificate I have for those 10 years, and I object in the strongest possible terms to a unilateral change from the testing body. Change the terms for future certifications if you feel you must, but DO NOT CHANGE what was agreed on in the past. alan _______________________________________________ lpi-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://list.lpi.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lpi-discuss
