Derek Moore Webboard User Reg: 08-14-2001 Posts: 5 Loc: Evansville, IN Offline	Is there any expiration on the DOD MWD Handler Certifications?... I have been out of the field for about 10 years but I'm thinking of getting back into it.. I have both patrol & detector certifications. Thanks for the info.

Derek Moore Webboard User Reg: 08-14-2001 Posts: 5 Loc: Evansville, IN Offline	Well what I mean is a DOD MWD Handler certification is like a college degree.. Once you've earned it.. you've earn it... Of course one may want to attend different seminars and new training classes to learn new skills and techniques but once you got it you got it... Even if you don't work in the field for a while it is always good. Of course it might be good to do some refresher training to get back in the swing. Basically I am wanting to get back into working with dogs in the private sector.. My training & expierence is still valid.. I shouldn't have to go thru the whole shottin match again if I want to work in the field. Thanks
