[Lnc-business] congratulations to the new RP

[Alicia Mattson]

I just want to publicly congratulate Joshua Katz for passing the
certification exams to become a Registered Parliamentarian.

There are three levels of status a person can have with the National
Association of Parliamentarians (NAP):

1)  A "member" has paid dues and has passed a short exam on the low-level
basics of parliamentary procedure under RONR.

2)  A Registered Parliamentarian has passed an extensive series of written
exams on not just the big concepts but also the nitty gritty details,
exceptions, seldom-encountered rules, etc.

3)  Joshua's next assignment is to undergo the peer-review evaluations by
other experienced parliamentarians to become a Professional Registered
Parliamentarian, which is the highest certification handed out by the NAP.
:-)

Becoming an RP is a pretty big technical accomplishment, so I'm awarding
him 2 brownie points.

Congratulations, Joshua!
