Disclaimer

The Certification Council does not endorse any one method of preparing for a certification exam. No one single publication, training course or reference guide will prepare a candidate on its own without other supplemental materials.

It is strongly recommended that prior to taking any certification exam, candidates review the recommended reading materials listed in the Candidate Guide and prepare themselves with self-guided study. Please note: The ASCS and CVI training courses do not teach to the exam. Candidates should not expect to earn a passing score simply by attending a NADCA training course.

Change in Circumstances

If you are a certified ASCS or CVI and are no longer able to fulfill and/or uphold the duties, responsibilities, or requirements of the certification, it is your responsibility to inform NADCA's Certification Council immediately and without delay. To notify the Certification Council in writing, please contact NADCA's Executive Director, Caitlin McWilliams, via email at cmcwilliams@nadca.com.
