The main problem lies with several certifier's don't understand what date to be placed for the effective date.
The idea of being accountable was a 2nd thought, but in my view it was a good idea.
Yes, too many policy's can be a problem. I suggest the following to be sent to all certifier's.
The effective date is when the final corrected data is received from a measurer or when a certifier completes their work on a course they measured.
Again, this all should take place in a timely manner. By this, I mean the Certificate should be in the mail no later than a week after issuing this Certificate.
The Vice Chair and Registrar would check to see that this is done.
