Tony - I'm not sure that your efforts, praiseworthy as they may be, reflect the entirety of significant concerns for prosthetists AND amputees. Maybe that which is appearing here is the submerged part of the meaningful issues for the overall effort, industry and amputees. I don't recall, for example, any of the industry people who post here
mentioning the fact that certification, while desirable, does not guarantee talent in a prosthetist or that there is NO mechanism in place to monitor the talent or reliability of prosthetist. This is a central issue, but there are many others......are any of these included in your roster of real important issues? George Boyer.
