Subject: RE: [Histonet] gravity for levity

 

Greetings to all,

 

Why is it that when the ASCP is mentioned in the subject matter, questions

die quickly on the vine?  Speaking of the ASCP is like talking with the
Wizard

of Oz; you know, "ignore the man behind the curtain."

 

The ASCP is the governing body of our livelihood.  How they wield the power

of their monopoly has effects on each and every one of us.  Joe has raised

questions many times about whether they make decisions before contemplating
their

effects.  I don't think it is a minor oversight that they would place
criteria

for certification that defies the geography of available resources.

 

Previous posts have indicated serious inconsistencies with the certification

process.  There seems to be no verifiable insight into the actual workings
of

this organization.  I find this lack of transparency and accountability

troubling.  The ASCP must have something more to offer than a trial by fire.
 It

bothers me as well as others that we don't know how they make their
decisions and

now it has gone farther as to why they make these decisions.  I would like
to

see our profession grow and get the respect it deserves but I think that

would be by helping each and every one of us; allowing all the boats to rise
in

the tide.

 

Regards,

Joan
