[Histonet] 2010 HT and HTL ASCP pass rates

[Mark Tarango]

Since you mentioned the SLS exam, it might be important to note this quote
taken from the ASCP webpage for anyone interested:

http://www.ascp.org/FunctionalNavigation/certification/GetCertified/SpecialistCertification.aspx


*"The certification, Specialist in Laboratory Safety (SLS), will be changed
to a qualification effective January 1, 2012. The last certification
examination for SLS(ASCP) will be administered December 30, 2011, with a
deadline date of August 1, 2011 for receipt of application forms. As a
qualification, the eligibility requirements have been revised and the
examination will be administered online as a 50-item examination.
Individuals currently SLS(ASCP) certified will retain their certification
and continue to participate in the Certification Maintenance Program (CMP)."
