CERTIFICATION Brenda Dickey, CDOA In accordance with my usual modus operandi, here is my “Hail and Farewell” for 2018. Intermingled is other news of which you should be aware. The Committee says farewell to Heidi Davis. Heidi has done a fabulous job overseeing our Policy and Procedures. During her tenure, Heidi did a detailed review and update of our Policy and Procedures document to add clarity in some areas, and “modernize” in others to acknowledge the use of electronic communication. In addition to those changes mentioned above that were effective 1/1/2018, two more changes will be effective 1/1/2019. The first is in Application for Certification. Because our industry is so dynamic, oftentimes applicants do not know three CDOAs, or the CDOAs they do know, they do not know well. The Committee voted to remove the requirement that the sponsors be CDOAs. Applicants still must have three sponsors, one of which must be the applicant’s supervisor or manager. The second change is in the Examination Process. The Policy and Procedures document was silent as to the number of times an applicant can retest with reapplying. The Committee voted to clarify the Policy and Procedures to limit retake opportunities to twice within 12 months of the notification of first failure of the exam. This change puts us more in line with NALTA and AAPL. Chris Tucker will notify everyone by email once the updated Policy and Procedures document is posted on the NADOA website.
If you are a CDOA whose certification expires January 1, 2019, you should receive your Re-Certification Application electronically by the end of January. If you do not receive your Application, please contact Darryn McGee, CDOA at dmcgee@protege-energy.com. TIME TO RECERTIFY? Back to “farewells”... The Committee also says farewell to me. It’s kind of weird to say farewell to myself, and I’ll admit I’m a little sad. Serving on the Certification Committee has afforded me the opportunity to meet many talented professionals from many different companies. I’ve forged friendships with many of you--friendships I believe will last a lifetime. I feel honored and privileged to have served as Certification Committee Chair. Thank you for the opportunity. The Committee “hails” Elizabeth (Eli) Murray as its Certification Committee Chair for 2019. Although Eli is not new to the Committee, she is new to the Chair position. Eli is very passionate about certification. She believes certification is something to be proud of--something for which we should strive to preserve the respect she feels it deserves. Don’t we all feel that way? That’s why I know I’m leaving you in good hands.
