[CAUT] Preaching to the choir;

[Chris Solliday]

I for one agree. Any CAUT endorsement should be open to all PTG members. The
RPT could and should be marketed separately. Institutions can still be
encouraged to hire RPTs and CAUT credentialed members.

Where it is a problem lies in our claim to be the only organization in the
US that certifies piano technicians. If we look at a tech who has been
through all four sections of both the Little Red Schoolhouse and Steinway,
but say, "well, he hasn't passed our exams, so we cannot endorse his skills
for CAUT work," those who are doing the hiring are going to completely
disregard anything else the PTG has to say.

The Caut endorsement may or may not be able to recognize other training
programs, but I don't understand this as a problem. People can be endorsed
by more than one program.
