Finally got my CPNE date!!

Published

I just got a call from the MPAC area they asked if I wanted a cancellation date!!! I said yes, I test July 22-24 in Milwaukee. That gives me 5 weeks to get my butt in gear!! I've already been using Robs DVDs and I just signed up to do Sheri's online workshop!!! Boy am I nervous!!! GN status here I come :)

Yes, I only wrote only what was necessary, because you don't have a lot of time and you need to stay focused.

Did you tell them you were interested in a cancellation date? Thats what I did when I called about my date and a few days later they called me and told me they had an opening for July. I do believe it cost to change regions, Im just not sure how much.

Site transfers: If you transfer between RPACs there is a $100 administrative fee in addition to the cancel/reschedule fees outlined above.

Exceptions to this policy will be made on a case-by-case basis at the discretion of the RPAC Director.

I think that only the $100 would be what you are responsible for at this point because the cancel/reschedule fees are if you have a date already. Are you thinking of transferring to NPAC?
