We have a tuner in the area who has included "Piano Technicians Guild" logo with 
his ad for several years in the local directory. Turns out he requested a 
membership application, but never joined.

Sleezy!

I t would be nice if we (i.e. the PTG) could deal with this kind of thing 
better. I strongly feel it creates consumer confusion. A lot of tuners advertise 
with "Certified" just because they graduated with a certificate, whether from an 
accredited school or not. Anecdotally I have noticed that these tuners are 
usully not members of PTG. I have even seen it posted like a "diploma". We need 
to make sure our brand is strong and clear to the public.
