Re: CHP's needed for workshop

Ted,

First, This workshop is only for Part I.  I don't recall there being 
very many complaints on Part I of the exam.  Most of the complaints 
have been on Part II.  

Second, based on that lack of complaints and having been part of the 
last Passing Point Workshop a few years back, I think the process is 
pretty reasonable.  I'd strongly encourage any and all CHPs to 
participate.  

Last, I don't see how you can let non-CHPs directly participate in 
the qualification of the exam that they may soon be taking.  You 
would also have to let ALL non-CHPs have the opportunity.
