Preparatory Courses

NARI Certification is a challenging process. For this reason, NARI offers online certification preparatory courses to assist you in preparing for the certification exam. 

All preparatory courses offered by NARI National take place online and are led by a course instructor. All online programs offer live interaction between the program leader and participants.

Your local NARI chapter may be hosting an in-person preparatory course. Check with your local chapter for availability.
