Wim,
I would consider this in direct violation, especially since all of your
other abbreviations indicate a category of achievement. This is an
example of the exact sort of thing to be avoided.  No one outside of PTG
would understand what CTE or Certified Tuning Examiner means in this
context.

I find myself in disagreement with Wim over his use of the acronym CTE 
on a web site, since this use clearly implies a credential. Implying a 
credential was just the sort of use we intended to strongly discourage.

This is what my web site says. (I composed it)
