Level I confirmation by SCMR
- Level I confirmation and endorsement for a course may be sought by the course director providing the course syllabus and a letter verifying that the course meets the above requirements. (Template provided)
- SCMR can additionally support the course director by providing SCMR issued Level I certificates for all attendees for a per person fee. (10 attendees or more at $40 USD per attendee)
- Alternately, official SCMR certification of Level I competency may be sought by attendees who apply individually for Level I – Track B and provide proof of attendance, the course syllabus and a letter from the course director verifying that the course meets the requirements. ($50 for SCMR members, $100 for non-SCMR members) In this case, the course director would need to provide attendees with a proof of attendance document and a letter attesting that the course meets the SCMR guidelines.
Course directors are encouraged to review the SCMR 2018 Training Guidelines and criteria for Level I – Track B and then submit an endorsement request form to request Level I confirmation and/or support.
