ON THE ROAD
My warmest gift for 2012 so far was the tremendous inaugural class of Certified Auxiliary Services Professionals (CASP) awardees designated in December 2011. I’ve overseen new certification programs before for other associations and those "first persons through the door" deserve special recognition. There is only one chance to be a pioneer.
