Unbutting my nose ...

[Porritt, David]

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.
