	FREE WEBINAR: CERTIFICATION OPTIONS FOR ADMINISTRATIVE PROFESSIONALS	5		M. Herman	Thank you Melanie, that's very kind of you. :) by M. Herman Friday, October 25, 2019
	Spring 2020 CAP Exam Prep Group Now Open	6		M. Herman	Okay, noted. Thanks. by M. Emmanuel Monday, September 30, 2019
	CAP Practice Exam	5		J. Helms	The practice exam had retired exam questions, which were sometimes retired for very good reasons (no longer relevant, outdated info, etc.). You do need more than the study guide to prepare, but perhaps your experience in the real world will make up for that during the test. Best of luck to you. by M. Herman Thursday, September 26, 2019
	Recert Questions	6		K. Page	I forgot to mention in my first posting that I did read in the recertification information that all recertifications will align with the exam dates so there will only be two times a year you may recertify and that will depend on your certification date. It just so happens mine aligns with the spring exam. by C. Hawkins Thursday, August 8, 2019

	CAP Fall 2019 Exam	9		V. Riley	Valerie, I have found the CAP to be a gold mine on my resume to the point that one employer insisted I retake the test after I let it lapse while I was out of the admin field. On your resume, show CAP after your name and give a brief description under "Continuing Education." It will likely come up. Here's your "elevator speech" as mentioned above by Joyce -- taken from the CAP page: "The CAP exam requires a minimum combination of education and professional experience. This exam assesses a common body of knowledge and proficiency on skills, concepts, and theories administrative assistants use in their work. The CAP exam is accredited by The National Commission for Certifying Agencies, an independent body that requires high standards and independence in assessing applicants." by D.
