Information Regarding Review Courses for the National Certified Guardian Examination.
NGA Review Courses for the national certification exam may be taken through NGA as a "webinar" through the use of a computer and a toll free phone number. The Review Course is divided into hour long modules; persons do not need to take all four sessions. Materials for use with self-study are also available. NGA has notified us that changes may be made in terms of MGA being able to offer future examinations. New information will be posted as it is available.
To purchase study materials or seek additional information, please visit www.guardianship.org.
NOTE: The Center for Guardianship Certification now requires that persons sitting for examinations use a computer to take examination. Examinations are still proctored. An internet connection is not needed to actually take the examination; however, it is required at some point prior to and following the examination.
