Additional Training: I am a CART pioneer in western Canada, my first assignment being in 1989. I learned and refined provision over the years. Our service to the client is comprehensive as we supply all equipment necessary for CART provision.  In addition, we have developed our own remote CART system for this ever-increasing demand. Educationally, I personally enroll in university courses, as well as regularly challenging NCRA exams. At Accurate, we believe in continuing education. We designed a CART kit for our providers, supporting uniform service delivery. As well, we conduct annual workshops for our team. In addition to myself, we subcontract with close to 10 CART providers in a wide range of venues.
