i am thinking of doing CMIA, a malaysian based course for impairment assessor. however, the course is not available all the time.

so im thinking of doing the US based CIR (IAIME)

the price tage is 485USD (course) + 475 USD (exam)

yay or nay?

If you are linked to anyone working in that field in M'sia on LinkedIn or similar you might want to ask their thoughts.
