Yes, that's true.  If you've found any good sites for support/answers/etc
please feel free to share them with us.  I would like to dedicate a page 
on our website to our certification group and related resources.

I see they have an office in the DTC.  Do you live in the Denver area?

Thanks Gary.  Why did you choose the Sair program over the LPI 
certification?  How difficult did you find the first two tests?
I didn't realize that any materials for the third test were 
available, how are you preparing for it?

Your way ahead of us, but if you'd like to join our study group,
we're currently meeting every other Wednesday evening in the
Inverness business park (I-25 & County Line Rd.).  Our next 
meeting is November 8th.  If not, your on-line presence will
certainly be appreciated.

Best of Luck on your test (tomorrow?).  Let us know how it goes.
