Dear WArnold,

What is this license of which you speak? To my knowledge those working in
the field of histology are certified/registered. And these titles stand.
There are also those working who are not certified/registered or those who
are registry eligible. It has always been a source of irritation to my
Director of Laboratory Services that our Human Resources department
periodically asks for license information on laboratory personnel subject to
certification/registration.
I am not trying to be picayune and perhaps you are from somewhere outside of
the US where regulations exist that I am not aware of. I am just interested
in some clarity. Thanks.
