2017-05-11 06:16:49 PM kathyhughes ADN sends NCCAP completers so that they can follow through, but you should have received a MEPAP1 certificate of completion
2017-05-11 06:16:49 PM marissavega1274 i was just waiting till we finish 2 so i can send it al in
2017-05-11 06:17:08 PM kathyhughes Which MEPAP1 class were you in?

2017-05-11 06:19:30 PM aclark they sent mine to my work
2017-05-11 06:19:46 PM pamgoodwin How did you get the certificate Marissa--
2017-05-11 06:19:55 PM kathyhughes NCCAP requires that instructors send lists of those who complete their courses
2017-05-11 06:20:00 PM marissavega1274 it just came home and the letter came to work
2017-05-11 06:20:11 PM carolyna That's how mine came too
2017-05-11 06:20:18 PM ryanklemmer So, is it really true that the NCCAP certification makes it possible to get work anywhere in the country?
2017-05-11 06:20:43 PM cathyross I think becoming certified puts you in demand for that job market.
2017-05-11 06:20:46 PM kathyhughes You can work anywhere you would like as well as Bermuda and Canada

2017-05-11 06:31:16 PM pamgoodwin Making one would be a bit difficult, but maybe
2017-05-11 06:31:24 PM bernlewis Kathy that sounds like a men's building project to me:)

2017-05-11 06:31:53 PM kathyhughes the men can sand the wood slabs and paint one set
2017-05-11 06:31:58 PM pamgoodwin I could approach the guys in the facility and see what they have to say...sure worth a try.
2017-05-11 06:32:16 PM kathyhughes And you could always do it as a bean bag toss
2017-05-11 06:32:16 PM cathyross Kathy....this is off the wall question....but are there incentives offered for referring someone to Mepap?
2017-05-11 06:32:26 PM bernlewis Maybe you could use pvc pipe and throw bean bags for tic tack toe
