Margie Longstreth, CDAL


As most professionals will tell you, whenever there is an opportunity to hone your skills, it should be taken. Taking the CDAL exam, and subsequently achieving the certifi cation, gave me the opportunity to put my day-to-day, anecdotal skills to the test. I walked away with a confi dence in what I do know, but also with the personal challenge to brush up on the subject areas that didn’t come as easily as I would have liked.
