Nick,

Does this mean that only Colorado InterNachi members can attend or that they are the only ones that can receive the grant?

I’m in Utah but still interested in obtaining the BPI training even if it does cost me a bit out of pocket. Would I be allowed to attend?

I don’t really know. You’d have to ask Alexandra.
