Information about CREST can be found at www.crest-approved.org. It's not a
secret organisation at all (23 member companies listed in the UK). It's
just pretty young and given the number of companies involved had to go
through a lot of growing pains to be something that everyone could agree to.

CREST is currently UK orientated but has been established in a way that will
enable it to open chapters in other countries and this is one of the long
term goals.

Incidentally, my company is a member of CREST, so my cards are on the table.
I think CREST will become the de-facto standard as it looks to set a high
but attainable benchmark on both a company and personal basis. I would be
wary of undeclared allegiances.

Sorry you're feeling left out in the cold Toby, I believe CREST is intended
to be an inclusive organisation not an 'old-boys' club and I'm sure if you
contact them again that you will receive a response.

Further information can be obtained from info@crest-approved.org

Regards
James
