IE What does it really mean to be an RPT ? To your client?..... Usually nothing. To You? ....Dunno. It's a bench mark to me, that is valuable, to myself or yourself with in the PTG Organization. But remember, many folks aren't really joiners unless there is a compelling reason. And frankly just cause your not a member doesn't mean that you couldn't be one of the best techs on the Planet. One of my mentors was a rock solid tuner a basic tech. He didn't see the need. I personally find the modern day networking an invaluable continuing education program available to me for zilch but that's me. SO I suggest there are many who have no compelling reason or not a strong enough one. There are of course a hundred other reasons & it's not for lack of folks giving the exams Dale Erwin I notice every month in the journal there are many more "new members" than there are "new RPTs". It seems like, over time, the numbers ought to be almost the same, discounting only non-tuning members. I have my theories. There were quite a few who took exams in Kansas City, but are not now RPT's. Are we undermotivated? Underprepared? Your thoughts?
