Danjo does have a point even if it was being made humorously.
If you can get the trainer to give you a certificate in a month because you've developed a "rapport" what good is it? It sounds like a pat on the back for a friend rather than something with any real meaning or worth. The connection with Kenpo ranks seems forced at best. Different skills take different amounts of time to acquire. The relationship between the level of competence and the piece of paper can be flexible.
