3. JUST Passed both FCCA!!

   JustforJoan replied to Mesiam's topic in Excelsior

   SVT511, what did you decide? Are you doing them together or one at a time. I start the FCCA on June 30 and I haven't decided if I should do them one at a time or together. I just don't know what the FCCA consists of? I don't want the answers I ju...

4. FCCA and CPNE

   JustforJoan replied to MsPC's topic in Excelsior

   Amy, I googled CPNE workshops and found her webpage. I will consider a workshop but I live in Seattle so getting there and paying for it and then saving for CPNE is $$, of course, worth it for the career.
