The Certiport Certification Lab returns this year where both BPA students and advisors have a great opportunity to take certification tests at an incredible value.

Please remember that some certification tests are embedded in Workplace Skills Assessment Program (WSAP) competitions at the national level. Be sure to read the guidelines for your event carefully to see if a certification is in fact part of your competition.

If your WSAP event includes a certification test, you will automatically be listed at no cost and scheduled for the test on Thursday. Be sure to check the guidelines for your event to see if it includes a certification test at NLC.

All persons planning to take a certification test (competitive event or stand-by) need to register with Certiport (www.certiport.com) before attending NLC. Students must include their BPA member ID in their Certiport profile when they register online.

Open certifications will be offered at NLC to registered Advisors and students only (guests cannot take the certification exams offered at NLC).

Onsite registration is available on Saturday, May 4. To register for a certification onsite, please check-in at the Hilton Anaheim: California Ballroom directly and speak with a Certification Coordinator. Please note that onsite registration is based on time and space availability.
