Hello Fellow MCLPs and MLP members !
Happy spring everyone ! We are well into our 2021 season , and I ’ m sure we ’ re all extremely busy . It is nice to see things getting somewhat back to normal after the challenges of the last 15 months .
The March exam was a great success ! We had 17 attendees , as we held the exam in two sessions to accommodate safe COVID protocols . We welcomed 7 new MCLPs to our ranks ( see sidebar ). Congratulations to them all !
I encourage my fellow MCLPs to promote the exam to your teams . The MCLP credential is an ideal way to set yourself apart in the green industry marketplace . As we expand the number of MCLPs in Massachusetts , the credential continues to gain even more recognition from our discerning clients . With preparation ( and perhaps some coaching from your own experience with the exam ), earning the MCLP credential is an attainable and worthwhile goal to set for your team members in 2021 .

Planning to take the MCLP Exam ?
AUGUST 6 , 2021 MEDFIELD , MA
It is worth noting that several of the candidates passed one section of the exam in March . This means that they may return to retest on the other half later this year . Remember that if you pass either the ID or the multiple-choice section , you can come back to an exam within one year ’ s time year and retest on only the remaining section .
Our next MCLP exam will be held on August 6 , 2021 in Medfield . Enjoy the summer ! Cheers !
