    • The team briefly discussed the annual review of the exam prices and will review this further at the next meeting.

    • Two exam requests have been received for the coming weeks.

    • The team discussed the status of the new platform in their last meeting. Their aim is to transfer the current J!3 Administrator exam to the new platform as soon as possible.
