If anyone wants CMI but can't afford the one-time $375...

[Nick Gromicko]

Email me at fastreply@nachi.org We'll pay the MICB the $375 up front for you. You can then pay us back over time. Take a couple years if you like. 0% interest.

[John McKenna]

Wow... that is a good deal.

[Marcel R. Cyr]

Very generous of you Nick.

[Michael Roberson]

Great deal, I have a 2 year wait before I make the second qualification....

[Jeffrey R. Jonas]

Yes, another generous offer from Nick. When I complete all the other requirements, I will look you up to see if the offer still stands (if necessary).

Same here Jeffery; 600 hrs to go. But if I could count my 93,000 hours in the construction trade, I would be all set.

Same here, but not so many hours....

Chris why did you quit NACHI? Doesn't seem right. Did the lady call you that I sent your way a few days back?

We're all going to get there one way or the other Billy.

Just takes time like a good wine.

[Tim Spargo]

I qualify,

This may sound silly, but for those who are already CMI, have you noted any benefit??

Tough to justify adding more stuff to one's resume in this market, but Nick makes a fair offer.

look forward to replies

CMI is a marketing sledge hammer. No, a marketing wrecking ball. Amazing. But like any tool, does nothing on its own... until you use it.
