i don't mean to sound like a teewat allthough it will come across like i am, but thats not really my problem, its one that the NCCA needs to get sorted, like as suggested, trainees must sign something to say they can't put trained in there marketing unless they become members, when i took the course this was not the case, and if it was the case then i wouldn't of trained and i doubt others would either so they have a bit of a quandry. (think thats the word i was looking for there) i was also trained by cleansmart, prochem and iicrc and i use this in my marketing too. really don't see why i shouldn't. i paid for the certificate and yet people are telling me if i don't join i should throw it in the bin and deny any link with who trained me. bizzarre in my eyes
its up to the NCCA to make it desirable to join rather than trying to alienate the likes of me with threats that i am doing something wrong.
they must have 2/3/4000 cleaners in there database, offer them a 50% discount and with money raised, plough it all into customer awareness, or promoting there website to get us more work. maybe then i'd give it ago.
