Launching in April! Always Improving Technology for PATH Intl. Members
|
|
PATH Intl. is developing a new database to enhance the members' user experience. The PATH Intl. website links directly to a customer relationship management (CRM) system, which is the technology used to manage member relationships and interactions. Currently this database is where members manage their contact information, make purchases from the store and the tool that links those records to online directories seen on the website such as find a center and the member directory.
The new system, which is slated to launch in April, will offer a friendlier user interface, ability to submit instructor compliance online and the ability to submit all center renewal requirements online in one setting. The member's profile page will even be customizable! Members will be receiving a welcome email with instructions on how to set up their new password and log into the new member portal.
Click here for a sneak peek at the future member experience. Watch for more information soon!

PATH Intl. CTRI Certification Exam Pilots
|
|
Sign-ups for two additional trial exams for the PATH Intl. CTRI certification remain open. The dates and locations for these trials are:
PATH Intl. Region 10 Conference (Colorado Springs, Colorado)
May 3, 3:30 to 6 p.m. MT
PATH Intl. Region 4 Conference (Augusta, Michigan)
May 16, 1:30 to 4 p.m. ET
The purpose of the trial exams is to confirm that the PATH Intl. CTRI certification exam questions perform to expectations and to determine an appropriate cut score (passing score) for the exam. For security of the exam questions, the trial exams will be offered in written pen and pencil format, administered by a test administrator from Professional Testing, Inc.
Participation can count for 2.5 Riding CR or 2.5 CE continuing education hours (CEUs).
Trial exam scores will NOT be recorded nor impact any certifications held nor future certification applications. The exam questions will be scored with the sole purpose of analyzing question performance across all exams completed, NOT analyzing individual tester performance.
Please contact
Bret Maceyak to sign up for any of these trials. (Please specify in your email the date or location you wish to sign up for.)
