What happened to the Bronze, Silver, Gold levels?
Over the years as certifications migrated from one name to another, it became a secondary reference to call the installation technician certifications by their levels in a format people would easily understand Bronze, Silver, and Gold like the Olympics. While this was a temporary measure, many people have been somewhat confused as to which certifications it applied. As a result, MECP officially adopted the names to Basic, Advanced, Master and MPS so that everyone could easily understand which certificate level applies to an individual’s level of achievement. All references to the Bronze, Silver, Gold levels in MECP books, literature and web content have been (or are being) phased out.
