Hello MLP members and fellow MCLPs ,
PAST CHAIR
Jenny Sherman Tonsig , MCLP NatureWorks Landscape Services , Inc . • Walpole , MA
Happy summer to all of you . I hope everyone is making the most of this prosperous and active season !
The MCLP Committee is gearing up for an August 5 exam . The summer exam is understandably more lightly attended than our March and November tests . We offer this exam in the rotation as a convenient opportunity for those looking to pass the second half of the exam ( and earn their MCLP ). We know that it is important to keep the momentum going when preparing to take and pass the MCLP exam .
Save the Date !
We are looking for more volunteers for the MCLP Committee ! Interested ? Contact the MLP Office !
2022 MCLP Exams
Friday , August 5 , 2022 Friday , November 4 , 2022 Seating will be limited . Please register early .
If members of your team are curious about the MCLP exam , I recommend having them purchase the MCLP Study Guide . The study guide a comprehensive online tool that is useful for general training as well as exam preparation . There is no obligation to take the MCLP exam following purchase of the study guide . Reviewing the chapters and topics covered in the exam can make the preparation process seem much less daunting . ( Employees of member companies should sign up for an $ 18 affiliate membership to receive member pricing on the study guide !)
Fall Field Day is right around the corner . This is a low-key networking event with opportunities to earn CEU credit . I look forward to saying hello to many of you there !
Enjoy the great weather !
