Hi Wrenches,

If anyone, anywhere has issues with the way they observe the NABCEP  
Certification used they should contact NABCEP's Executive Director,  
Pete Sheehan. He can be reached by email at; psheehan at nabcep.org or  
by phone at; (518) 899-8186. Please send along as much specific  
information including name of certificant, location of job where  
perceived issue occurred, date, etc.

Best regards,

Ezra Auerbach
on behalf of NABCEP
