Sounds a little "Unionish" to me. Not really but you know what I mean.

Affiliations mean a lot to some people. I know some people that say "Oh I won't hire somebody unless they are Union. They're trained, they know what they're doing!"

Apparently CEDIA has decided to take the either you are with us....or you're against us attitude. At least that's the way I see it.

My question is how much money is it going to cost a contractor each year to be on the good list? Not only in training, but on the pay raise for that one extra special "certified tech" that is going to be threatening to leave without the big bucks and he'll take his certification with him?
