Tom Gorski has a lot of great news these days. He became executive director of RESNA – Rehabilitation Engineering & Assistive Technology Society of North America, which has its headquarters office directly above the Rosslyn Metro Station. It doesn't get more convenient than that if you need to commute or avoid traffic.
It was great to hear from Tom today. He just rediscovered the Certification Network Group. It's grown and changed since Tom first got to know the group, back when he was the Director of Marketing for ASAE. Matter of fact, we just got back from the NOCA national conference where there was a lot of buzz and praise for the way the CNG has connected so many certification leaders and beginners with each other this year.
Tom is actively seeking a Director of Certification. If you want to apply or send this to someone in your certification network, here's the information you need.
RESNA is seeking a talented individual to lead the association to the next level of credentialing development. The program was established 10 years ago. The issues before us in the next year are:
1) an update of the exam blueprint (job analysis, new items, etc.),
2) promoting the value of the three certifications offered within the assistive technology community and related organizations, and
3) expanding the number of exam administrations in 2007 by a third. Our goal is to become NCCA accredited by 2009, and to offer two of the exams online when the update is completed.
The ideal candidate is one who is passionate about credentialing, experienced in working closely with volunteers, and can travel up to 15% (that should diminish considerably when the exams are offered online). The position reports directly to the Executive Director and supervises one person. Salary negotiable. Inquiries and responses to Tom Gorski.
