Walter & Group............
Jim Valle and I have a burning interest in doing what we can to assist & improve the Casting Instructor program.
He has come up with a carefully thought out list of questions.
Any of you who have gone through the CCI process can answer (even if you have subsequently achieved MCCI status.)
Signing it is optional.
