NAPM-Spokane
C.P.M.
and A.P.P. Certification
The deadline to register and pay to take your C.P.M. certification test(s) is December 31, 2008. That's only 41 days from today! You will then have until December 31, 2009, to take and pass the four exams required to obtain this certification.
NAPM-Spokane will be offering one final round of test preparation classes (4 in all - one for each test module) provided we have enough interest from those who have committed to taking the tests by registering and paying for their tests. If you are one who has registered and paid for your test(s) by December 31, 2008, and are interested in taking these class(es), please contact Pam Tatosky so we can arrange the classes. If the interest is there, these classes will take place starting early 2009.
If you want this certification, time is running out. After 2009, new C.P.M. certifications will not be available; only those who have already earned their C.P.M. will be able to renew it.
