Certification Trainings
Important Residency Notice for Standards Certification Trainings​
Participants are kindly reminded to only register for Standards Certification Trainings offered within their state of residence or employment. If your state or country does not currently offer the Standards Certification Training, you have the following options:
-
Participate in an Open NFSN Training: These trainings are available to individuals from any location and are linked below.
-
Host a Training for Your Stakeholders: Your organization may arrange to host a training to meet your needs; see below to inquire.
​
Please note that registering for a training outside of your state will result in ineligibility for certification, even if you complete the training. Thank you for adhering to these guidelines to ensure the program's integrity and accessibility for all participants.
