Training is something the chapter is already involved in and should therefore ensure is done well, since it reflects on the chapter. Having individuals contacting potential trainees directly appears unprofessional and leads to an inefficient and inconsistent response.
Without prejudice to the particular issue, and sorry if this comes across sharp. But not being able to tell the difference between things that are mission-critical, and things that are just people involved "having their druthers" (as they say across the Atlantic), is in my view a disqualification in this discussion. That's a principle with wide application across this debate. As in "don't get me started".
