Deja,
I have never written a resolution to that effect. We do have a couple of letters written by NBPCB and ACVREP that discuss how the processes are both valid, and we have a research report written by Dr. Aditya that shows the equivalency of the two processes if that would be helpful.

Hello Friends,
Have any of you ever written or presented a resolutions regarding O&M/cane travel certification practices? More specifically, something regarding the equalocity (yep made that word up) of an NOMC and AER/COMS certification? We are needing to write a resolution here in Utah to a school who refuses to even interview NOMC's, and only allows the COMS certification. If you can share any such resolution, or any documents that might be helpful, I would greatly appreciate it. You can emaill me directionly at deja.powell at gmail.com .
Warm Regards,
Deja Powell
