Proposed merge of Qualified Mental Retardation Professional into Qualified Intellectual Disability Professional
[edit]Merge to fix a content fork, created in response to a change in terminology. In all other respects the topics are identical. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 22:24, 3 September 2020 (UTC)
This article does tie directly to the Qualified Mental Retardation Professional (QMRP). However to delete it moving forward or to place it under QMRP would also be shortsighted as QMRP is outdated. Perhaps Qualified Intellectual Disability Professional should be the title for the QMRP page with QMRP becoming part of the history. Many people starting in the workforce today will not know what a QMRP is, but will know what a QIDP is in the referenced material.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:387:1:809::84 (talk • contribs) 20:34, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
