RE: CREST Information

All

Information about CREST can be found at www.crest-approved.org.  It's not a
secret organisation at all (23 member companies listed in the UK).  It's
just pretty young and given the number of companies involved had to go
through a lot of growing pains to be something that everyone could agree to.

CREST is currently UK orientated but has been established in a way that will
enable it to open chapters in other countries and this is one of the long
term goals.

Incidentally, my company is a member of CREST, so my cards are on the table.
I think CREST will become the de-facto standard as it looks to set a high
but attainable benchmark on both a company and personal basis. I would be
wary of undeclared allegiances.

Sorry you're feeling left out in the cold Toby, I believe CREST is intended
to be an inclusive organisation not an 'old-boys' club and I'm sure if you
contact them again that you will receive a response.

Further information can be obtained from info () crest-approved org

Regards
James

We were in the process of applying for CREST accreditation earlier this
year, but have not been able to get any responses out of them since
August.
Has anybody else had a similar experience?
