For that reason, the MSPA should strongly consider making their certifications free to shoppers. It's a way of vetting shoppers for their MSC members, which in turn would make the MSPA more valuable to MSCs.
The MSPA should also consider developing other types of professional development for shoppers besides their conferences. They recently presented a free webinar, led by one of their member MSCs. I'm sure it did not cost them anything, which is why they should to do more stuff like this.
