"MAKING THE LEAP TO REMARKABLE" Through Achieving the CAP-OM!

Those of you already studying for the May 4 -5, 2012 certification exams – I heartily applaud your initiative and personal “pro-activism” to independently get started! In order to assist you in this most excellent endeavor, I am glad to coordinate a study group if you feel this will be useful for you. Contact me at helenjross@comcast.net or on my cell 253.208.2182 and we will get this set up. Likewise if you have already established a group, please let me know so that I can direct other interested members your way to join in the studying fun!

Best of luck to all you future CAPs!
