Jan 28, 2013 Fine-tuning exam questions, second round
Jan 28, 2013 from Deborah
Are we still keeping the focus on what the Western standard is, or
working to create a global standard that reflects regional differences?

Hi Deborah, everyone,
Thanks for your prompt feedback. To answer Deborah's timely
question about if we are to continue focusing on Western standard, yes,
I think we should continue with this focus and only branch out to
regional differences in our Advanced Level 3 as optional modules.
(As it turns out, our Level 1 questions have the same focus as the AICI
FLC written exam, which is to focus on Western/N. American
standard. So we have good company!)
Perhaps we could add a disclaimer to our Level 1 as something like this:
"The IITTI Exams represent the highest standards of
image and professional conduct in the Western world.
Your local practice and company policies may vary."
What do you think?

Great idea.
I even suggest North America instead of western.
And what about the question of the business card Japanese style? Does
that question belong to this Level I scope?

Hi Riet,
In
Canada and I believe the US we use the two handed (Japanese method) as
well as the one handed method for giving and receiving business cards.
So I think it is important that it be included in the first level.
Thanks
Kimberly

Hi Patrick:
I agree with what you're proposing.
Jan 29, 2013 from Deborah
I agree, Kimberly. Although primarily Japanese, this method is
important for every business person to understand.
