Certificates |
|
 |
Those Extra Certificates How many extra certificates do you have?... you know those certificates you obtain just for your information, and on them are the registration details of many others.
Of course I am only interested in the ones relevant to me. But what about those other ones??...
Over time I will start posting the extra ones I have to this forum as time permits, who knows it could be one that you were looking for...
maybe you have some that you might also like to share... You just might have one I have been searching for.
Please include the BDM office and the reference number in case others wish to order the certificate for their own research. |
