I think the qualifications of techs for accredition is a weak point. AASM told me that they did not want to tie accreditation to another organization's certification. They are working on a required training and experience level for the levels of staff used. They are planning a course for PSG techs as a start. I hope so. I'm sure that BRPSGT would be also sufficient or "equivalent."
