Do you remember the fun of taking exams during your academic years…Grade school, Junior high, High school, College?

In October, I completed the SCAMPI Lead Appraiser for Development certification exam to maintain one of my professional credentials.

Why am I posting this blog? It’s rather simple. I don’t enjoy the hassle of preparing for professional certification exams. In some respects, it’s an OK activity, in that you revisit material that is relevant to what you do. It can be enlightening also, as you discover little tidbits of information that somehow escaped your review in the past.

But I’ve gotta confess, in my case, it’s a frantic exercise of over-preparing out of professional pride. For some reason, I still get spun up when it comes to getting ready for a test. Dunno why that still happens at the age of 50, but it still does. It brings out the kid in me, school kid that is.

So another test in the bucket, and another certificate on the wall.

Ain’t that a kick in the pants?
