Rolling Meadows, Ill. – RSES is proud to announce the names of members who were awarded RSES Certificate Member and Certificate Member Specialist status October 2014 through March 2015.

In order to become a CM, a RSES Member must first pass a rigorous examination that tests the knowledge required to install and service refrigeration and air conditioning equipment. CM-level members are recognized industry-wide as having achieved a superior level of HVACR knowledge. The RSES CM exam is based heavily on theory and practical applications.

The following RSES members passed the CM exam and were awarded CM status: James R. Keith, CM, of the Greater Chicago Chapter, Chicago; Randy J. LeBlanc, CM, of the Boston Chapter, Grafton, Mass.; Juan M. Munoz-Arreola, CM, of the Laney College Chapter, Oakland, Calif.; Anthony V. Ortega, CM, of the Los Angeles Chapter, Los Angeles; Bruce Pride, CM, of the Long Beach Chapter, Long Beach, Calif.; Mark A. Ferguson, CM, of the Cowtown Chapter, Fort Worth, Texas; Jose J. Medina, CM, of the Refrigeration Association of San Antonio Chapter, San Antonio; J.F. Townsend, CM, of the Los Angeles Chapter, Los Angeles; Lou Abruzzese, CM, of the Camden Chapter, Camden, N.J.; Joseph A. Mullaney II, CM, of the Westchester County Chapter, White Plaines, N.Y.; Allen Spearman, CM, of the Mid-State Chapter, State College, Pa.; Samuel C. Cress, CM, of the Twin Cities Chapter, Minneapolis; and Brian J. Metzger, CM, of the Souris Chapter, Minot, N.D.

 To obtain CMS status, a SM or RSES Member must first pass the CM examination. CMS status is earned by passing one or more of the eight Specialist examinations available. Specialist exam categories include: Commercial Refrigeration; Commercial Air Conditioning; Heating; Controls; Domestic Service; HVACR Electrical; Heat Pumps; and Dynamic Compression.

The following RSES members passed a CMS exam and were awarded CMS status: Dones G.

Keith, CMS, of the Greater Chicago Chapter, Chicago, passed the exam in HVACR Electrical; Anthony V.

The CM/CMS exam series originated in 1935 and the SM classification was introduced in September 2008. For additional information, please contact the Educational Branch of RSES by calling 800-297-5660 or 847-297-6464, or by faxing 847-297-5038.
