Bram,

Nice to see you have a new home. Missed you.

Don’t ignore those guys who want a New York seminar. Maybe we need to get you to Atlantic City, so the rest of us southern New Jerseyans can attend.

Allbest,

Thanks, anyman. Came in from link on Blade Forums, right into MBC forum. Was trying to decide whether to demonstrate new guy status and get acronym cleared up, then you did it for me. (and others, I'm sure) Hate acronyms that are new to me! But, now feel like one of the chosen.

thanks for the welcome...We're working on a schedule of events @ the main web in Golden..
yup teaching at the new school location..and of course I'll be a traveling road show..
Looking for locations and/or sponsors of the events...

certification is easy..come to a certification seminar..usually a two day event..take the course and get a basic certification..it allows you to start to teach the concepts of MBC-Gunting....for example

We've got tapes and curriculumn...

Bram,

I would love to see a stop on the road show this summer somewhere in North Alabama or a surrounding area. Maybe Huntsville, Birmingham, or Nashville, TN would work if you haven't already stopped in and I missed you. I have been debating picking up a Gunting, but I think I would like to have a bit of training with it before I actually get one.

Thanks to everybody for your enthusiasm and support. It's great to be here.

To clarify things a little bit, Bram's reference to instructor certification had to do with certification in his Gunting program only. Based on discussions with Sal and Gail, we do not plan to offer instructor certification in the MBC core curriculum at this time.

Our desire is so make sure that we do things right and keep the quality of the program high. At present, we're still in the developmental stages and the best way to do that is centralized control. Once the program is better established, we may revisit the idea of instructor certification.

what he said..yeah!! If I confused anyone I'm sorry..Yup..GUNTING Instructor certification is what Imean..and to me..oops my mistake again cause of my point of view is when I say MBC I mean MBC-Gunting...
Mike, gail, Sal n I all know what I mean but ..yeah..as Mike said so you all see it in print..He's absolutely correct!!!!!
Mike is the Head of the MBC School...
and he's doing the curriculumn stuff on MBC and its certs!!!!

Mike..its sooooo cool to have you up here..

Hi Mike. thanx for visitin'.. Appreciate.

Bram, you've got your Gunting program pretty well developed and some type of program is beneficial to the tool (Gunting).

Our MBC class is still pretty general and there really isn't a tool involved. We'd like to more a little slower as we develop.

Sal: I agree...I have the CSSD-MBC with GUNTING as well...I 've taught a structured certification program for years..this becomes an extension..
Mike does have a program..and it is very neat..might not be his full MBC version yet..same for Jim n Mas...Jim has a program..
Mas has a program..just as I do..
Mike should soon have his own MBC tool..all the MBC guys need their own hole..
We each have a piece of the truth in the totality of MBC...
hmmmm gee Poppa Spyder that leaves you to have the truth in using the Temperance...

I'm lucky to be part of such a fine group!!!
ROCK on MBC!!!!
