As we start the new semester, it’s important that we begin preparing for our upcoming recertification due this spring. We want to thank the schools who have invited us out to talk about recertification. After our presentations, the question periods are quite busy. It is much easier for us to answer questions at the workshops than on the phone. Please remember that we are willing to answers any questions that you call us with. Also, Initial certificate holders may wish to review the educational video Julie and I made. It is on our website www.roe51.org. (Click here for the complete article.)
